Getting braces is a big life change - but it shouldn’t change your lifestyle! With a custom NorthoGuard sports mouthguard, you can keep enjoying all the sports and activities you love while protecting your smile throughout your treatment.
A sports mouthguard is a protective, cushioned appliance that fits snugly over your teeth to prevent injuries to your mouth and orthodontic braces. Made from flexible material, it acts as a buffer against oral trauma, jaw injuries, and even concussions.
It’s always a good idea to wear a mouthguard during contact sports, but when you add braces to the mix, not just any sportsguard will do. A custom sportsguard will fit perfectly over your appliance and be specially made to adjust to the changing shape of your smile during treatment.
The average mouthguard will not be shaped to accommodate your orthodontic appliance, and therefore may not work as intended. You run the risk of injury to yourself or your appliance if you don’t have a sportsguard custom made for your smile.
At Northern Orthodontics, we can craft your bespoke sports mouthguard right here in Manchester, in our in-house lab. We don’t need to use any messy moulds to make your mouthguard. Instead, we’ll produce them using our high-tech 3D scanner which creates an accurate digital model of your smile in just minutes.
Schedule a 3D scan for your custom sports mouthguard today - so you can enjoy your favourite sports with peace of mind!
Dr Mojtaba will undertake a thorough assessment and determine the best treatment for you.
