Reduce Sports Injuries With Mouth Guards Ijamsville, MD

Reduce Sports Injuries With Mouth Guards

Playing on a sports team is a staple of any childhood from playing little league baseball to playing college football. Regardless of the sport, players will benefit from wearing the proper protection such as shin guards, shoulder pads, helmets, cleats and mouth guards. While most sports go over the necessary gear that the child will need to wear to each game, they may not require mouth guards. With that in mind, mouth guards can be the deciding factor that saves a child’s teeth.

While many parents will invest in a store-bought mouth guard, they may not realize the risk. With store-bought mouth guards, the mouth guard will not be a perfect fit for the child’s teeth. Due to the improper fit, a child will face a greater risk of damaging his or her teeth during the sport or game. A professional mouth guard will be a perfect fit to the child’s teeth that will not run the risk of falling out during the game.

Several reasons why a professional mouth guard will be much better than a store-bought brand over the counter include:

  • Less of a chance for the mouth guard falling out on a regular basis
  • The mouth guard will be a comfortable fit for the child
  • Better and more efficient protection for the teeth
  • Made with a more durable yet still completely harmless material

Check out what others are saying about our properly fitted custom-made mouth guards on Yelp: Custom-Made Mouth Guards Ijamsville.

The process for a mouth guard is harmless and does not normally take more than two appointments. During the first appointment, we will take a mold of the child’s mouth and images as well. Next, we will send the measurements and mold to a dental lab where they will custom-make the mouth guard. The child will return to our office once the mouth guard is complete. We will see if the mouth guard fits and make any necessary adjustments. After the appointment, the child will have the necessary protection to help keep his or her teeth safe during physical activities.

If you are interested in getting a properly fitted mouth guard for your child, then give us a call at (301) 605-1157 and schedule an appointment today.

Definition of Restorative Terminology

Dental Restoration
A dental restoration can restore a tooth to heal any damage and bring back functionality in the tooth. Dental restorations can also replace any missing tooth structure and prevent the need for an extraction in the future.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants protect the child’s teeth from infection with a harmless solution that covers the crown of the tooth. The solution hardens minutes after we place it and is a long-term treatment to prevent tooth decay.
Dentist
A dentist, also known as a dental surgeon, is a doctor who specializes in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases and conditions of the oral cavity.
Pediatric Dentist
A pediatric dentist specializes in providing the necessary dental treatment and oral health care for a child to develop healthy teeth. A pediatric dentist will provide a comfortable environment for children while also providing professional and specialized oral health treatment.
