What is a Sports Mouthguard?

A sports mouthguard is a protective dental appliance that fits over your teeth and gums to reduce the risk of injury during sports or physical activities.

It acts as a cushion, absorbing and distributing impact forces to protect your teeth, lips, and jaw from damage.

Mouthguards are recommended for anyone participating in contact or high-impact sports.
