If you or your child is a part of an organized sports team you have no doubt gone shopping for a mouthguard for the protection against oral injury. Most team coaches/leaders have made the mouthguard a mandatory part of equipment, just like helmets or padding. Over the counter products provide some protection but a custom-made mouthguard from your dentist will allow the utmost in injury prevention. A custom fit guard will be more comfortable for the wearer so he/she may adapt to it easier.
