A guard made from impressions of your teeth fits better, stays in place and lets you breathe and talk more easily than a store-bought version.
Custom Mouth Guards
Contact sports, skating, biking and even pickup basketball can lead to chipped, cracked or knocked-out teeth. A well-fitting mouth guard absorbs and spreads the force of a hit.
Custom guards are made to your exact bite, so they’re comfortable enough that athletes actually wear them.
What to expect
We take a quick mold of your teeth.
Your guard is made to fit your bite precisely.
We check the fit and make any adjustments.
We show you how to clean and store it.
