What Are Mouthguards?

Dental Implants Fort Myers

Mouthguards are protective devices designed to shield your teeth, gums, and jaw from injury during sports and other high-risk activities. They are especially important for athletes participating in contact sports such as football, hockey, or basketball, where collisions and dental injuries are common. By acting as a cushion between the upper and lower teeth, mouthguards absorb the force of impacts, helping prevent broken teeth, cut lips, and jaw injuries.

Mouthguards are not only for athletes. Individuals who grind their teeth at night benefit from night guards, which reduce tooth wear, jaw strain, and headaches caused by bruxism. Wearing a custom-fitted mouthguard is a simple, effective way to maintain oral health while avoiding the pain, cost, and inconvenience of dental trauma. At Viruet Periodontics, Dr. Krystal Reyes-Viruet provides custom mouthguards designed for maximum comfort and protection. Fort Myers patients can trust that each mouthguard is tailored to their unique needs, ensuring superior fit, durability, and performance whether on the field, in the gym, or at home.

Benefits of Mouthguards

Preventive Dentistry in Fort Myers

Prevention of Dental Injuries

Mouthguards absorb and distribute impact forces to protect teeth. They reduce the risk of chipped, cracked, or knocked-out teeth during sports. Custom-fitted guards provide superior protection compared to over-the-counter options.

Protection Against Jaw Injuries

Mouthguards cushion the teeth and jaw during impacts. They help prevent jaw fractures and related injuries. This protection supports safer participation in contact and high-impact activities.

Enhanced Safety in Non-Contact Sports

Mouthguards protect teeth even in non-contact sports like basketball. They reduce the risk of injury from falls, collisions, or impacts with equipment. Wearing one ensures overall mouth and jaw safety during athletic activities.

  d such an amazing experience with Dr. Krystal Viruet and her team! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and taken care of. Dr. Viruet is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but also genuinely caring—she takes the time to explain everything and makes you feel completely at ease.

Violeta and Jacky at the front office are just as wonderful. They are friendly, organized, and go above and beyond to make the entire process smooth, from scheduling to check-out.

The whole office has such a warm, positive energy. It’s rare to actually enjoy going to the dentist, but this team truly makes it a great experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional dental care!

  Following a referral from my dentist for severe periodontitis, I was experiencing significant personal challenges. Dr. Reyes-Viruet, Violeta, Jackie, and the entire staff have consistently provided a welcoming and compassionate environment. Their attentiveness to detail and dedication to my care have been exceptional. While this is the initial phase of treatment, I feel understood and supported, and I am confident in my ability to openly communicate any questions or concerns.
