Protecting the teeth from external trauma is just as important as taking care of oral hygiene and appearance. Especially, if you’re a sportsperson, you stand a higher risk of getting injured in the mouth due to the extreme physical work that you involve in. To save your teeth from possible damage, it is advisable to get yourself a custom sports mouthguard. It is a worthy investment that could save you from a whole lot of pain and complications. Dr. Ayoub suggests his patients use a custom mouthguard for teeth protection.
Athletes train day and night to get better at their game. It would be great if their effort is complemented with the use of a mouthguard to protect their teeth and soft tissues in the mouth from injury. Athletes who play sports such as boxing, basketball, hockey, martial arts, rugby, soccer, snowboarding, biking, cycling, surfing, wrestling, track and field events, etc. would find great use of a mouthguard.
Patients who are diagnosed with night-time bruxism can also find great use of a mouthguard. Such patients end up subconsciously grinding their teeth during their sleep, which can wear the teeth down to their stubs. This also increases the sensitivity of the teeth as the enamel tends to wear off and expose the nerve endings in the teeth, thereby giving rise to hypersensitivity. Such patients can benefit from a night-time bruxism mouthguard.
A mouthguard must be cared for properly to keep it in its pristine functional state. Some of the things you can do are as follows:
