Braces and Sports: What Mouth Guard is Best?

As you know, protecting your mouth is essential while playing sports, especially if you wear braces. We know it can be hard to find a mouth guard that fits comfortably and correctly, which is why we’re here to help!

At Lawless Orthodontics, we offer complimentary mouth guards to help protect your teeth and braces while playing sports. All you have to do is ask! They are solid black to match any uniform, and are made to protect your braces, no matter what sport you play. However, we also have Shock Doctor mouth guards available for purchase in our office, which is the #1 selling mouth guard in the world.

Shock Doctor Mouth Guards are highly recommended because:

-There is no molding required.

-They are made of 100% medical-grade silicone, so no boiling is required.

-They are able to adapt to changes in your tooth positioning as your braces are adjusted.

-Shock Doctor Mouth Guards meet national and state high school rules, which require full coverage of upper brackets.

If you or your child needs a Shock Doctor mouth guard or would like one of our complimentary mouth guards, just ask your assistant at your next appointment!
