Dentistry 32 prioritizes providing custom mouthguards as an integral part of our preventive dentistry approach to safeguard our athletes’ smiles. Our goal is to prioritize your safety and uphold the longevity of your precious smile. Additionally, Dentistry 32 offers custom nightguards to protect against nighttime teeth damage caused by grinding.

Understanding the Functionality of Our Custom Mouthguards and Nightguards

The personalized mouthguards crafted at Dentistry 32 on 32 Lower Portrush Road, Marden SA 5070 are tailored by taking impressions of your teeth. This allows for a bespoke appliance that fits the unique contours of your teeth. The primary purpose of a mouthguard is to act as a barrier between your teeth and any unexpected impact, such as from an elbow or a ball during sports activities. These mouthguards are designed to not only ensure a secure fit for safety but also prioritize comfort. Similarly, nightguards are created using dental impressions to keep your upper and lower jaw separated while you sleep. Opting for a custom mouthguard over a store-bought one is essential to avoid oral injuries, guard displacement, and associated risks like speech disruption, breathing issues, and potential gum or cheek irritation.

Tips for Maintaining Your Dental Accessories

To uphold the longevity and effectiveness of your custom dental appliance, proper care is essential. The dental team at Dentistry 32 will provide specific care instructions tailored to your guard and oral health status. General maintenance guidelines include:

• – Rinsing your mouthguard or nightguard with cool water after each use

• – Using a mild soap and a soft brush to clean to prevent bacteria buildup

• – Bringing your guard to routine dental check-ups for evaluation of wear and tear

• – Storing your mouthguard in a breathable container in a safe place

• – Avoiding exposure to dry heat

• – Promptly notifying your dentist of any damage to your appliance
