Frequently Asked Questions About Mouthguards
Why are mouthguards important?
The most common reason to wear a mouthguard is to protect your teeth and gums while playing sports. Whether you’re participating in a contact sport or not, a well-made mouthguard is your best defense against blows to the mouth, teeth, gums, and jaw. Mouthguards can also alleviate symptoms of teeth grinding and TMJ disorders.
Can mouthguards help with TMJ problems?
Yes, mouthguards from an experienced dentist are designed to fit over your teeth so that as you sleep, your jaw stays in a forward position to properly realign the joint, as well as prevent you from clenching down and putting excess pressure on your TMJ during the night.
Which mouthguards work best?
The best mouthguard is one made especially for your or your child’s mouth. A professionally made mouthguard will outperform a store-bought “boil-and-bite” mouthguard because it will fit better, provide superior protection, and last longer. At Star City Dental, we can have athletic mouthguards made, as well as mouthguards for TMJ pain.
