Custom-Made Pressure Laminated Mouthguards Designed, Fabricated and Fitted by a Dentist have been substantiated in the dental literature to be more protective than Over-The-Counter Stock or Boil/Bite Mouthguards in the Prevention of Sports Oral-Facial Injuries.
This type of Custom-Made Mouthguard may be able to reduce the forces transmitted to your teeth and jaw because of the retentive fit (does not dislodge upon impact), balanced occlusion (more uniform energy absorption) and the proper uniformed thickness of the mouthguard (occlusally, facially, buccal and lingually).
Since 80-90% of oro-facial sports injuries occur to the upper front four teeth, that is where we have a primary focus in the construction of our mouthguards.
The most important aspect of a mouthguard is that it is properly fitted and does not dislodge upon impact!!!
