A dental emergency refers to any situation where immediate dental care is required to alleviate severe pain.

Mouthguards For Sports- You love your sport- we love to keep your smile safe.

Custom mouthguards are a good option for those looking to protect their teeth, and can be used for sports or other applications such as for protection during sleep against teeth grinding.

A well-fitted, custom made mouthguard can protect your teeth and jaw by limiting the impact from contact and reducing the risk of damage to your teeth. Without one, sportspeople run the risk of damaging, chipping, breaking, or even knocking out their teeth, which can be a painful and costly problem to fix.
Ultimately, a mouth guard can protect your teeth just as much as it can protect your confidence in your smile.

Custom-fitted mouthguards and Snoring

If snoring means you or your partner are kept awake during the night, you should first check with your general practitioner in case obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is the cause. It’s important to get a diagnosis, as OSA can be dangerous and lead to accidents due to lack of sleep.

If you have obstructive sleep apnoea and it’s not severe, your dentist may suggest a custom-fitted mouthguard that will help prevent snoring. These oral appliances are used in conjunction with other methods of treatment including assisting weight loss, exercise, and adjusting your sleeping position.
