Keep Your Smile Intact With Mouthguards in Houston

Whether you play sports or grind your teeth at night, mouthguards in Houston play an important role in protecting your smile. They're the first line of defense against dental damage or mouth injury. While you have plenty of options in store and online, a custom mouthguard from your general dentist offers better protection.

You'll wear your custom guard with ease since it is made for your teeth. It provides optimal coverage and comfort while you sleep or play sports.

Pick a Dentist-Made Mouthguard

Store-bought mouthguards seem like a quick fix, but they rarely deliver proper protection or lasting comfort. A custom mouthguard is created for your specific mouth, designed to fit your bite and keep your teeth safe while feeling great.

A Fit Made for You

We take precise impressions of your teeth to build a guard that matches your bite exactly.

Safety During Sports

A dentist-made guard cushions impacts and protects against serious mouth injuries.

Ease Jaw Tension

A custom-fitted guard balances pressure and reduces tension in your jaw joints and the surrounding muscles.

Sleep Better at Night

Custom guards promote a relaxed jaw position while keeping your airway open.

Protect Your Teeth With a Custom Mouthguard

Our practice is all about preventive care and comprehensive solutions. We focus on helping you save your smile in the long-term. If that matters to you too, you'll love our customized mouthguards. Unlike generic store-bought options, ours fit your unique dental structure. They are also far more durable, making it well worth the investment. Wearing yours will help you avoid wear and tear or dental damage that could require extensive restorative treatment.

We use hassle-free digital scans to obtain dental impressions. With our 3-D printing, we can sometimes create a custom mouthguard for you in-house. We also work trusted lab partners, when needed. Depending on your needs, we offer:

Athletic Mouthguards - Created just for athletes, this mouthguard offers optimal protection during sports activities. It will protect your lips, tongue, teeth, gums, and cheeks from injury.
Bite Guards - If you grind your teeth, we can create a special guard that protects your teeth. You'll wear it while you sleep, the most common time for people to grind or clench their teeth.

In addition, Dr. Lee will also explore other solutions if you are grinding your teeth due to alignment issues. Our orthodontic options will get your teeth back into proper alignment, stopping this damaging habit from harming your smile.

Why are mouthguards important?

Mouthguards can serve several important functions, including protecting your teeth, gums, and jaw while playing sports and preventing you from grinding your teeth at night. In either case, a mouthguard created by your dentist is the best way to ensure a custom, comfortable fit and that it's made of high-quality, durable material.

Can mouthguards help with TMJ problems?

Yes, and in fact, custom mouthguards are one of the most common, conservative solutions for TMJ disorder and teeth grinding. Because these oral devices fit over your upper and lower teeth, they keep you from involuntarily clenching and grinding your teeth together while you sleep. This can alleviate the pressure on your jaw, reduce painful symptoms of TMJ disorder, allow the joint to heal naturally, and protect your tooth enamel from damage.

How are mouthguards made?

For any oral appliance to fit well and work effectively, it needs to be customized to the precise measurements of your mouth. Athletes who buy mass-produced guards from a sporting goods store, for example, will never find one that is sized comfortably or appropriately enough to provide full coverage and protection. We can create a mouthguard that allows you to move, breathe, and communicate easily while keeping your smile safe.
