Sports mouth guards are essential for anyone participating in physical activities, providing critical protection against dental injuries. Our experienced dentists and team offer custom sports mouth guards to help athletes protect their teeth and gums from impact. Whether you are involved in contact sports or recreational activities, a well-fitted mouth guard can make all the difference in preserving your smile.
Why Choose a Sports Mouth Guard?
A sports mouth guard is a specially designed device worn over the teeth to protect against sudden impact. While generic, store-bought mouth guards are available, they may not fit as well as custom-made options, which are tailored specifically to your bite and provide superior comfort and protection. Dr. Steve Yopa and Dr. Salar Ebrahimi customize each mouth guard to ensure it stays securely in place and offers the most effective barrier during sports activities.
Benefits of Custom Sports Mouth Guards
Choosing a custom sports mouth guard in Leesburg, Virginia, offers several advantages over one-size-fits-all options:
- Superior Fit and Comfort: A custom-made mouth guard fits precisely to your teeth, making it comfortable to wear and easy to breathe and speak with.
- Enhanced Protection: Custom guards offer a better shield for teeth, gums and soft tissues, reducing the risk of fractures, cuts and other injuries.
