Sports Mouthguards--Not Just For Kids!

Football. Biking. Clenching while running. Street hockey. Baseball.
A mouthguard can help protect you.

With summer sports and activities in full swing, we want to make sure that you are fully prepared and protected with mouth guards. Without a mouthguard, you are more easily susceptible to an injury of the lips, tongue, and soft tissue of the mouth. This protective guard can prevent chipped or broken teeth, nerve damage to the tooth, and even tooth loss!

Mouth guards can also limit the risk of mouth-related injuries during contact sports so that you can have a fun and safe time doing what you love.
Keep in mind that just because you don't play contact sports does not mean that you might not benefit from a guard--we see many biking-related tooth injuries! Even clenching during activities can cause chipped teeth or gum discomfort.

At Castle Pines Dental Care, we provide custom-fitted sports mouthguards at a competitive price. If you would like to have greater protection than the store-bought mouthguard can provide, we'd be happy to consult with you on your specific needs!

Call us to learn more about how mouthguards can be an important addition to your game or activity!
