Whether you're a weekend warrior, a student athlete, or someone who grinds their teeth at night, a custom dental mouthguard from Stephen Cheung DDS can protect your smile and your jaw. Unlike one-size-fits-all options from the drugstore, our mouthguards are precision-molded to your teeth for a secure, comfortable fit that stays in place when it matters most.
What Is a Dental Mouthguard?
A dental mouthguard is a flexible oral appliance crafted from medical-grade materials and designed to protect your teeth, gums, and jaw. Whether you need protection from sports impacts, nighttime teeth grinding, or TMJ-related strain, a mouthguard acts as a cushion that absorbs force and prevents damage. Unlike store-bought options that come in generic sizes, a custom mouthguard is built from precise impressions of your teeth - resulting in a better fit, superior comfort, and longer-lasting durability.
Athletic Mouthguards
If you or your child participates in contact sports like football, basketball, soccer, or martial arts, a custom athletic mouthguard is one of the best investments you can make for dental safety. Sports-related injuries can lead to broken or knocked-out teeth, lip and tongue lacerations, and even jaw fractures. A professionally fitted mouthguard stays securely in place during activity - it won't slip or fall out the way store-bought guards often do - so you can focus on the game with confidence.
Nightguards for Teeth Grinding
Bruxism - the unconscious habit of grinding or clenching your teeth during sleep - can cause serious damage over time, including worn enamel, cracked teeth, jaw pain, and persistent headaches. A custom nightguard creates a protective barrier between your upper and lower teeth, absorbing the force of grinding and helping your jaw muscles relax.
If you wake up with jaw soreness, morning headaches, or your partner notices grinding sounds at night, ask Dr. Cheung about a nightguard at your next visit. It's one of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your teeth while you sleep.
