Benefits of mouthguards

The impact from a flying hockey ball, or a misplaced elbow can cause serious damage to your teeth or the bones of your jaw. It is not worth taking the risk of playing without a mouthguard. A professionally made guard, tailored exactly to your mouth, will offer the best protection.

Those who clench or grind their teeth (bruxism) as they sleep can also benefit from a bespoke mouthguard that will provide a barrier between your upper and lower teeth and prevent unnecessary damage while the cause of the bruxism is investigated.
