Mouthguards in Calgary, AB
Mouthguards are designed to keep your teeth and gums safe from injury. Mouth and jaw injuries are among the most frequent types of injuries suffered by athletes. It is strongly advised that you use a mouthguard, especially if you frequently engage in direct contact sports. Sports injuries are unavoidable and are bound to happen. A mouthguard is there to help reduce your risks of a severe injury by adding an extra layer of protection. Most mouthguards can also be custom-made to fit the person in question, making them more comfortable to wear for long periods.
Teeth Grinding
Do you grind your teeth when you are nervous? Maybe you grind your teeth when you sleep? Chronic teeth grinding or sometimes known as bruxism, is a condition that affects both children and adults alike. It’s an involuntary action that happens when a person is fast asleep or under immense stress. A dental mouthguard is usually the recommended option as it helps prevent damage from the constant grinding of your teeth when you sleep. When using a mouthguard correctly, it can help reduce damage to your teeth including:
- Reduces tooth wear
- Prevents fractures and broken teeth
- Can reduce headache symptoms, including migraine
- Reduces pain in jaw and teeth as well as shoulders, neck, and ears
How does it work?
Our dentists in Calgary at Oasis Dental can create custom fit mouthguards based on your grinding pattern. Firstly, we would begin by taking a dental imprint of your teeth in preparation. We would then use this imprint to make your custom mouthguard that will fit your teeth structure perfectly. Once we get the completed mouthguard, it would then be inspected thoroughly to ensure there aren’t any defects and it fits comfortably into your mouth. Depending on the material used and the patient’s requirements, completion times will vary. Still, we ensure that our build quality is up to standard and that your mouthguard will be able to provide you with better protection.
