Mouth guards are custom-fitted devices that cushion teeth, jaws, and gums from impacts or grinding, preventing fractures, chips, or TMJ issues. Types include sports guards for athletics, bruxism guards for clenching, and night guards for sleep – all made from durable materials to absorb shock and reduce wear.

Why Mouth Guards Are a Smart Choice

Over-the-counter versions don’t fit as well; custom guards offer better protection, comfort, and breathability, lowering concussion risks in sports or enamel erosion from grinding. They also alleviate headaches and jaw pain – extending tooth life and avoiding costly repairs.

Who Needs a Mouth Guard?

Athletes in contact sports, those with bruxism (teeth grinding), or anyone with sleep clenching benefit most. Kids in activities or adults with stress-related habits qualify. At OxyDental Noho, we’ll take impressions to create a perfect fit based on your needs.

The Mouth Guard Fitting Process

We start with a dental exam and impressions or digital scans to design your guard. It’s fabricated in a lab for precision, then adjusted at a follow-up fitting – the whole process takes 1 to 2 weeks, with easy care instructions provided.

How to Use and Maintain Your Guard

Wear during sports or sleep as advised, rinse after use, and clean with mild soap. Store in a ventilated case to prevent bacteria – regular check-ups ensure fit and condition, with replacements every 1 to 3 years depending on wear.

Benefits That Enhance Daily Life

Mouth guards prevent injuries, reduce grinding damage, improve sleep quality, and protect investments like orthodontics. Users experience fewer pains, better performance, and peace of mind – making them essential for active lifestyles.
