Custom mouthguards are strongly recommended for people involved in contact sports like rugby, football, hockey and boxing. However, they can also be beneficial for non-contact sports like basketball or skateboarding, where accidental falls can result in dental injury. Those with dental work like crowns, bridges or braces, as well as children with developing teeth, can particularly benefit from custom mouthguards. If you’re engaged in any physical activity where there’s a risk to your teeth or mouth, a custom mouthguard is a good investment.
