Protect Your Smile During Activity with Sports Guards
For athletes of all ages, dental injuries can occur in both contact and non-contact sports. Our custom-made Sport Guards in Edmonton are crafted from high-quality, durable materials. They act as a cushion to help absorb and redistribute the force of an impact.
Unlike store-bought “boil-and-bite” options, a professionally fitted guard from our office stays securely in place, making it easier to breathe and communicate with your teammates while protecting your mouth.
Managing Nighttime Grinding (Bruxism)
If you wake up with jaw soreness or have noticed flattened or chipped teeth, you may be clenching or grinding your teeth during sleep. Night Guards in Edmonton are custom-molded appliances that create a barrier between your upper and lower teeth. This helps to:
- Reduce Wear and Tear: Protect your natural tooth enamel and existing dental work (like crowns or veneers) from excessive pressure.
- Support Jaw Comfort: Help alleviate tension in the jaw joints and surrounding muscles.
- Preserve Tooth Structure: Minimize the risk of fractures or thinning caused by long-term grinding.
The Custom-Fit Advantage
Professional guards offer a key benefit over generic store-bought options. At Harvest Pointe Dental, we use digital scanning technology to create a precise virtual 3D model of your teeth. The modern approach eliminates the need for traditional “goopy” impression trays, providing a more comfortable experience for our patients. Once your scan is complete, your guard is fabricated to your exact specifications to ensure a fit that feels natural and works well.
