Sportsguards in Aurora

Protect your child's smile with a custom sportsguard at our Aurora dental office!

If you've enrolled your child or yourself into hockey, basketball, baseball, soccer, self defense or any contact sport or activity, you have undoubtedly created a list of safety equipment you will need. If a mouth guard isn't on your list of equipment, consider adding it.

What Are Sportsguards?

A sportguard, or protective mouthguard, is an acrylic, retainer-like appliance worn at night or during contact sports to protect your teeth from injury. Sportguards are custom-made to each individual's teeth. An impression of your teeth is taken and used to fabricate the mouthguard. Once it is ready, return to the office for a second visit to try it on and make any adjustments to ensure it fits comfortably.

Why Should You Get a Sportsguard?

A sportsguard can be made to protect teeth and jaw joints from trauma that may be sustained while playing contact sports, which is a crucial component of concussion prevention.

If you would like to have a sportsguard made for your child or yourself, please contact Dr. Harry Weingarten and his qualified team at our Aurora dental office to schedule an appointment.
