I tell all of my patients who are involved in athletics—even the adults!—that the best protection available is a custom-fitted mouthguard from the dentist. I’m not just trying to sell a product—there’s been a lot of research on the topic and even the boil-and-bite mouthguards don’t offer the same level of protection as a mouthguard from the dentist. We use superior materials and a completely customized process for maximum comfort and efficacy. Dental injuries can be devastating, time-consuming, and costly to treat, so this simple preventive measure is an investment worth making.
