Stock And Boil-And-Bite Mouthguards
Stock and boil-and-bite mouthguards are a convenient, cost-effective mouthguard option, but they do not provide the level of protection that your teeth deserve. Because they are not custom made, they can be uncomfortable when worn for long periods of time.
Custom Mouthguards
When you work with a mouthguard dentist, you get a mouthpiece that is uniquely designed to fit the shape of your teeth. These mouthguards provide the best protection against teeth grinding and sports related injuries. Among the many mouthguard types available, a custom mouthpiece is likely to be the most superior.
How To Care For a Mouthguard
The best way to care for a mouthguard is to clean it at the end of the day using a soft toothbrush and a little bit of paste. Once it has been thoroughly cleaned, it should be rinsed under cool water and stored in a vented container so that it can dry thoroughly.
Benefits Of Using A Mouthguard
There are many benefits of using a mouthguard, such as:
- Less strain on teeth and jaw muscles
- Mouthguards are light, easy to carry and comfortable to wear
- Reduce headaches and facial pain caused by excessive teeth grinding
- High-quality protection for individuals who engage in high-impact activities
