Mouthguards are an essential piece of safety equipment for many sports, from football and rugby to boxing and even some extreme activities. Wearing mouthguards during sports can help protect your mouth and teeth from serious injury.
If you or your child requires a mouthguard for sports, we offer Under Armour mouthguard fittings. Contact us at 281.501.7849 to learn more.
3 Mouthguard Benefits
Some sports require mouthguards to support and protect youth athletes from physically altering trauma. In addition to mouth protection, mouthguards can provide numerous other benefits.
There are a variety of mouthguard benefits that come with using a mouthguard during sports:
- Protect teeth — Mouthguards protect your mouth and teeth from any trauma or impact caused by contact sports or activities. This can help prevent damage to the mouth that could result in pain, costly dental repair bills, or even permanent injuries.
- Reduce the risk of concussions — Wearing a mouthguard can also help reduce the risk of concussions and other head injuries. By absorbing some of the impacts from collisions or tackles, mouthguards can help decrease the intensity of a blow to your head and thus reduce the likelihood of concussion.
- Improve performance — Not only do mouthguards protect you from injury, but they may also improve performance! Some mouthguards are designed with a particular material that helps maintain mouth pressure and can help improve breathing while playing sports.
At Wambaugh Dental, we understand the importance of mouthguards during sports and provide Under Armour mouthguards to help protect your mouth from potential trauma. Contact us at 281.501.7849 to learn more about how a mouthguard can protect you.
