\"dentistTailgate parties, sizzling hot dogs, and fresh, cool air \u2014 we are excited to welcome fall and football season here at Hill Avenue Dental. We also think it\u2019s a great time to remind our patients of the importance of wearing a customized mouthguard on the field (and the court, track, and mat, too). These custom-fit sports guards protect athletes\u2019 smiles from excessive impact and blows to the face. They\u2019ve also actually been shown to reduce the incidence of concussion. <\/span>Your dentist<\/span><\/a> in Superior, WI provides customized sports\u00a0guards for athletes of all ages and levels of play.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Play Without Your Mouth Guard<\/span><\/h3>\n

You wouldn\u2019t go out onto the football field without a helmet and pads, so why would you (or your child) go without necessary protection for the smile? A custom-fit mouthguard provides significant protection for sensitive tooth enamel during contact sports. Mouth guards are a necessity for high contact sports, like football, basketball, wrestling, and boxing \u2014 but they can also be beneficial during other sports, like tennis, baseball, and track and field. <\/span><\/p>\n

One of the most common causes of dental emergencies is contact sports. At Hill Avenue Dental, we often treat knocked out teeth, broken or fractured teeth, lacerations to the soft oral tissues, and other sports-related injuries requiring emergency attention. That\u2019s why we are so committed to providing the athletes in our community with sports guards!<\/span><\/p>\n

On the Need for a Custom Fit<\/span><\/h3>\n

Sure, you can save time and maybe money in the short term by picking up a one-size-fits-all mouthguard at the sporting goods store. But these generic sports guards just do not provide the same amount of protection as what can get from a mouth guard that your dentist creates especially for your smile. Custom-fit mouth guards offer superior comfort, meaning athletes are more likely to wear them during every single game and practice. And the most important factor in the success of any sports guard? Its regular, consistent use. <\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, custom-fit mouth guards over generic ones have been shown to reduce the occurrence of concussion in contact sports. Young athletes whose brains are still developing especially benefit from this added boost of protection. <\/span><\/p>\n

Hill Avenue Dental Provides Customized Mouth Guards<\/span><\/h3>\n

Don\u2019t wait until a dental or oral injury happens to you or someone you love to invest in a mouthguard. Prepare yourself (or your athlete) for success this fall and all year long by getting fit for a custom sports guard. It\u2019s a quick process \u2014 we\u2019ll take an impression of your or your child\u2019s mouth and create the device based on the unique oral anatomy. Replace the mouthguard every six months, or as soon as you begin to notice signs of wear, for maximum protection. Your oral and overall health depends on protection during contact sports \u2014 please don\u2019t hesitate to <\/span>schedule an appointment<\/span><\/a> for your customized sports guard today!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
