Custom Mouthguards Bundoora
Splints and mouth guards are both appliances recommended by dentists to protect a patient’s teeth.
Night splint
Night splint is commonly recommended for individuals who experience teeth grinding or clenching during sleep. These devices serve to protect teeth from excessive wear, fractures, and potential breakage. Bruxism, the condition characterized by grinding or clenching, can lead to discomfort in the jaw joints and may result in headache. Night splints are available in various designs, customized to accommodate an individual’s specific bite and preferences, ensuring optimal comfort and effectiveness.
Mouth Guards
Mouth guards are recommended for people who participate in contact sports (AFL, Boxing, Hockey, Roller Derby, Rugby, League, Rugby Union, and Soccer) where accidents can easily occur and can damage one’s teeth. Mouth guards can come in a range of colors and designs
The first step to having a custom mouthguard created is to come in for an appointment. We will take moulds of your teeth so your mouthguard can fit perfectly to your bite and teeth.
You will also be able to pick any colour of your choice! Some people prefer multi-colour mouthguards, and others prefer white.
As soon as your mouthguard is ready, we will give you a call to come in and collect it. You will then be able to protect your smile during sports and play the game safely!
If you clench or grind your teeth (also known as bruxism), you may have painful headaches, an aching jaw, a worn-down bite or broken restorations. A custom-made night guard will protect your teeth and help your muscles to relax during sleep, protecting your dentition.
Fortunately, Smile Creation are experts in providing custom crafted night guards to keep your teeth safe during sleep. All you need to do is book in a single visit, where we will take impressions of your teeth and create your night guard.
