Mouth Guards
Custom-designed mouth guards are made of flexible plastic and molded to fit the shape of your teeth. Mouth guards are recommended to protect the jaw, tongue, cheek lining and teeth during physical activity and sports such as boxing, football, basketball, or other activities where your mouth might get hit.
If you are active in athletics, we can help you determine if any kind of guard or appliance is a good option for you. If so, we will take an impression of your teeth to create a custom-fit product for your specific needs.
The creation of a mouth guard begins with an evaluation of your needs to determine the most suitable type for your situation. Then precise impressions of your teeth will be taken to create a custom-fit mouth guard tailored to your unique oral anatomy. Once crafted, your mouth guard will be fitted and adjusted for optimal comfort and effectiveness.
We'll provide guidance on proper usage, care, and maintenance of your mouth guard to ensure longevity and effectiveness.
"Dr. Purvis is the greatest dentist I’ve ever been too. He makes you feel welcomed and cared about. He genuinely cares about all his patients. He explains exactly what he’s doing, why he’s doing it, and how it’ll help. Dr. Shimer is the same! Understanding how to properly explain what they are doing to someone who doesn’t understand much about teeth, helps not only with anxiety, but also with helping to better understand how to care for teeth. Not to mention the dental assistants and hygienist are all amazing! Candy and Jessica are superb! And can’t forgot about the front desk ladies! The friendliest people I have ever met! Vicky, Nicole, Heather! They are all the best of the best of the best!"
