Mouthguards
Protecting your teeth is our top priority. But is it yours? There are many ways to protect your teeth against decay, infection, and injury.

What is a mouthguard?
Mouthguards offer cushion-like protection to protect your teeth against impact from sports injuries, bruxism, and TMJ.
Commons Reasons to Get a Mouthguard
There are numerous reasons to get a mouthguard. Whether you’re already experiencing pain or you’re trying to prevent trauma, getting a custom-made mouthguard is the prudent option to protect your long-term oral health and quality of life.
- Involved in sports
- Bruxism
- TMJ disorder
A mouthguard is essential to protect against a dental injury if you or your child is an athlete. Avoiding costly and painful dental procedures may be just one mouthguard away.
Do I need a mouthguard?
If you are involved in contact sports, you should have a mouthguard. Additionally, a mouthguard can protect your teeth and joints from damage if you suffer from bruxism or TMJ.
A mouthguard can protect your teeth from damage and trauma like uneven wear, fractures, and cracks. Not only will this help protect the structural integrity of your teeth, but it will help you avoid costly and invasive restorative procedures. If you are dealing with bruxism or TMJ, you can help relieve jaw and neck pain, protect your bite, and improve your overall quality of life.
What to expect when getting a mouthguard
We know you have options for getting a mouthguard, but we want to assure you that a custom-made mouthguard is the best way to protect your teeth. Fitted mouthguards provide the optimal level of comfort and security to protect your teeth and prevent any secondary issues.
Custom mouthguards are made specifically for you in a lab. Your Frisco dentist will take a mold of your teeth to ensure that your mouthguard provides optimal protection and comfort. Once we get your mouthguard back from the lab, you will come back to ensure that the fit will give you the security and comfort you need.
How much does a custom mouthguard cost?
A custom mouthguard is the most expensive option, but it is the most effective for protecting your teeth and joints. Dental insurance often covers a portion or all of your mouthguard, depending on the reason for needing one. We are confident that the comfort and security a custom mouthguard offers are worth the investment. For a quote on your custom mouthguard, call Prime Time Dentistry to schedule your appointment.
Your Frisco dentist will provide you with the high-quality, personalized dental care you deserve. If you need a mouthguard for any reason, we will guide you through your decision-making process to ensure that you get the right mouthguard to suit your needs and protect your long-term oral health.
