Custom Made Mouth Guards from the Best

All recreational, amateur and professional athletes should include some type of mouth protection in the uniform.
A Custom Made Mouth Guard
A custom made mouth guard is the cream of the crop when it comes to mouth and jaw injuries. In other words, your dentist has the tools and education to create a custom made mouth guard that is thin, comfortable and very easy to wear.

A Custom Made Mouth Guard for All Sports
Back in the day Seattle dentists weren’t talking about mouth guards for water polo players or surfers but today’s dentists are.
Dr. Tom Sweeney, Dr. Rhys Spoor and Dr. Richard Ansong can’t stress the importance of mouth protection for skateboarding, martial arts, gymnastics and mountain biking.
Of course it goes without saying that mouth guards are essential for all contact sports such as soccer, water polo and basketball. In fact, basketball is at the top of the list when it comes to mouth injuries.
While you can buy a standard mouth protector at your local sporting goods store Dr. Rhys Spoor, Dr. Tom Sweeney and Dr. Richard Ansong recommend spending a little bit more for a custom made mouth guard.
Types of Mouth Guards
- Standard
- Boil and Bite
- Custom Made
All three of these types of mouth guards give the athlete more protection than nothing at all. In addition standard, boil and bite and custom made mouth guards have prevented plenty of trips to the emergency room after a blow to the head.
With that being said investing in a custom made mouth guard for every member of your family from Dr. Richard Ansong, Dr. Rhys Spoor or Dr. Tom Sweeney is less expensive than an unnecessary trip to the hospital.
