Athletes and Mouth Guards

Mouthguards are an essential piece of equipment in contact sports such as football, hockey, lacrosse, wrestling, baseball, basketball, and more. Imagine having a tooth knocked out in the middle of a game. Not only will it affect your performance, but the healing time might put you on the bench for a few weeks. At Nicholas Cosmetic Dental Center, we supply our pediatric and adult athletes with custom fitted mouth guards for the ultimate protection to ensure that you maintain your highest level of performance on the field, court, or rink.


Wearing a mouth guard helps protect teeth during sports and helps cushion a blow to the face, minimizing the risk of broken teeth and injuries to your lips, tongue, face or jaw. At Nicholas Cosmetic Dental Center, our custom fitted mouth protectors are individually designed to fit your mouth and your mouth only. First, one of our doctors will make an impression of your teeth and a mouth guard is then molded over the model using a special material. The thinness of the custom mouth guard allows for easy breathing and also allows for easy communication so that you can shout out your signals clearly.


If you think you may benefit from a custom fitted mouth guard, please give us a call.
