Custom Mouth Guards in Beverly Hills
We protect our bodies when we play sports. We wear seat belts in the car. But what are you doing to protect your teeth? Whether you're on the basketball court, the football field, or simply grinding your teeth at night without realizing it, a custom mouth guard could be exactly what your smile needs.
In Beverly Hills, we provide custom-fitted mouth guards that go far beyond the basic boil-and-bite options you’ll find in stores. These are tailor-made solutions, crafted for comfort, performance, and long-term dental health.
Why Mouth Guards Matter
Let’s be honest: most of us don’t think about our teeth until something hurts. But when it comes to prevention, a custom mouth guard is one of the smartest tools available. It forms a soft but sturdy shield between your teeth and the forces working against them, whether that’s a stray elbow in a soccer match or your own unconscious clenching while you sleep.
There are two common types:
- Sports Guards – Built for athletes, these help prevent broken teeth, lip injuries, and jaw trauma.
- Night Guards – Ideal for those who grind or clench their teeth (bruxism), these guards reduce wear and protect your bite over time.
How Do You Know If You Need One?
Not everyone realizes they need a mouth guard right away. Here are a number of symptoms that you must look for:
- You are suffering from a sore jaw or dull headaches.
- Your teeth show signs of chipping or unusual wear.
- You’ve cracked a filling or two.
- You hear clicking in your jaw or feel tightness when chewing.
- You play a sport where contact (or chaos) is part of the game.
