Mouth Guards for Kids
Mouth guards are designed to act like a cushion, absorbing impacts that could otherwise cause chips or cracks in teeth, or even knock teeth out. They can also prevent some of the wear and tear that can come from teeth grinding or clenching while sleeping.
When your child is young, it's important to protect their oral cavity as it's still growing and developing.
Plus, wearing a mouth guard can prevent serious damage that might lead to painful and costly dental treatments later on.
Overall, dental appliances, specifically mouth guards, are an easy way to keep your child’s smile safe.
Custom-Fitted Sports Guards
Sports mouth guards are a great way to protect your child’s teeth from getting damaged during high-impact activities. In sports like hockey, mouth guards are usually required, but we also highly recommend them for other sports like basketball, football, baseball, and soccer.
Accidents can happen quickly, and a mouth guard can help prevent common injuries such as knocked-out teeth, cracks or fractures. It’s a simple step that can make a big difference in protecting your child's oral health.
Custom-Fitted Night Guards
Jaw clenching or teeth grinding, known as bruxism, is pretty common in children. It usually happens during deep sleep or when a child is feeling stressed. Most kids eventually grow out of it, but it’s still a good idea to check in with your dentist.
In some cases, bruxism can lead to issues like ear aches, headaches, trouble sleeping, chipped teeth, or worn-down enamel. If you suspect your child might be grinding or clenching their teeth, it’s best to book a dental checkup so their dentist can take a closer look and recommend the right treatment.
