When to use a mouth guard
- Athletics: Mouth guards for sports are essential equipment for athletes of all ages and skill levels. Whether you’re playing contact sports or recreational activities, a properly fitted mouth guard can prevent dental injuries, like chipped or knocked-out teeth, as well as protect your jaw and soft tissues.
- Bruxism: For those who suffer from bruxism, night guards are a saving grace. They create a cushion between your upper and lower teeth, effectively reducing the harmful effects of teeth grinding during sleep.
- Sleep Apnea: Individuals with sleep apnea can benefit from oral mouth guards to help keep their airways open, which provides essential relief from sleep-disordered breathing.
