Sports mouth guards are protective devices designed to cover the teeth and gums, providing a cushioning effect against impacts or injuries during sports activities. Dr. Maconi highly recommends these custom-made mouthguards to minimize the risk of dental trauma, such as broken teeth, jaw fractures, or soft tissue injuries, during contact or collision sports.
To ensure optimal protection, we begin by taking precise impressions of your teeth.
Using these impressions as a guide, we fabricate custom mouth guards that fit your unique dental structure.
The dental guards are designed to provide a comfortable fit and excellent coverage to safeguard your teeth and surrounding oral tissues.
Our dentist in Havertown, PA, will provide detailed instructions on properly wearing, cleaning, and storing your mouth guard.

Yes. Because our sports mouth guards are custom-made from impressions of your own teeth, they fit your mouth precisely, without the bulk or looseness of generic, store-bought options. Most patients find them comfortable enough to forget they are even wearing one once they get used to it.
A properly fitted custom mouth guard is thin enough and contoured to your bite, allowing for normal breathing and clear speech. This is one of the main advantages over bulky, ill-fitting boil-and-bite guards from the store, which often interfere with both.
With proper care, a custom sports mouth guard typically lasts one to three seasons, depending on how often it's worn and how it's maintained. Growing children and teens may need a new guard sooner as their teeth and jaws develop, so we recommend having the fit checked regularly.
Yes, patients with braces can absolutely wear sports mouth guards. Dr. Maconi can design a guard that accommodates orthodontic brackets and wires while still allowing for the gradual movement of your teeth during treatment, protecting both your smile and your braces.
Store-bought or boil-and-bite guards offer some protection, but they rarely fit as well as a custom guard made from an impression of your own teeth. A loose or bulky fit can reduce protection, make breathing and speaking harder, and is more likely to be left unworn. Custom guards from Havertown Dental Arts provide a more secure, reliable, and comfortable option.
