Custom Made Mouth Guards
Your teeth are put at risk whenever there is a chance of an object coming in direct contact with the face. This is particularly common in sports, where the risk of injury is heightened dramatically.
In addition to striving to offer dental care that is affordable for everyone, our dentists strongly believe in prevention as the best medicine.
Mouth guards made by SmileCo Dentists are custom-made and are of better quality than over the counter products. These mouth guards are generally ill-fitting, bulky and hard to wear. SmileCo’s custom-made mouth guards are specially designed allowing you to bite, speak and breathe normally.
