What are Sports Guards?

Sports guards, also known as mouthguards, are custom-made protective devices worn over the teeth to prevent injuries during sports or physical activities. They help cushion the impact to the mouth, teeth, and jaw, reducing the risk of broken teeth, cuts to the lips, and other dental injuries. At Memorial Children’s Dentistry, we create custom sports guards tailored to fit your child’s mouth, ensuring comfort and maximum protection during play.

Initial Examination

During the visit, the dentist will thoroughly examine your child’s teeth and may use X-rays to locate cavities or decay. This helps determine if a filling is necessary and ensures an accurate diagnosis.

Cleaning and Decay Removal

Once a cavity is found, the decayed part of the tooth is carefully removed. The area is cleaned to eliminate bacteria and debris, creating a healthy surface for the filling.

Filling Placement and Shaping

A tooth-colored filling material is applied to the cleaned cavity, shaped to match your child’s natural tooth structure, and hardened with a curing light to ensure a secure, durable fit.
