What are the types of dental mouthguards?
There are three main types of dental mouthguards: stock, boil-and-bite, and custom-made. Stock mouthguards are preformed and ready to wear, while boil-and-bite mouthguards can be molded to fit your teeth after being softened in hot water. Custom-made mouthguards are created specifically for your teeth by a dentist, offering the best fit and protection.

What are the options for treating TMJ?
TMJ, or temporomandibular joint disorder, can be treated with various methods, including night guards, physical therapy, medications, and lifestyle changes. Night guards help prevent teeth grinding and clenching, reducing stress on the jaw. Physical therapy exercises can improve jaw movement and relieve pain. Medications such as muscle relaxants or anti-inflammatory drugs are prescribed in some cases. Your dentist will recommend the best treatment plan based on the severity of your symptoms.

Why are mouth guards important in sports?
Mouth guards are crucial in sports to protect your teeth and mouth from injury. They cushion the impact of blows to the face, reducing the risk of broken teeth, cut lips, and other oral injuries. Wearing a mouth guard can prevent costly dental repairs and ensure you enjoy your favorite sports safely. Make an appointment today to get a custom-fit mouth guard and keep your smile safe on the field or court.
