Last week we talked about the pure power mouth guards for college, pro, or high level high school athletes. This week we are going to talk about PlaySafe mouth guards for high school athletes, younger children, or college club sports.

5 million teeth will be knocked out of mouths this year! But, ADA thinks that 200,000 teeth will be saved by PlaySafe mouth guards which are custom made to your mouth by your dentist. 

Keep in mind that 34% of all sports related injuries involve the face. However, the risk of injury to your teeth and mouth is reduced by 99% with a mouth guard. In addition, PlaySafe mouth guards are far more effective than store bought, plastic mouth guards.

Over-the-counter mouth guards are not as effective as PlaySafe mouth guards because they are not made for your specific teeth and face. Also, they cannot be altered for braces or missing teeth. Most mouth guards sold over the counter require your teeth to be clenched for maximum protection.  PlaySafe will stay in place with no effort because they are made to the exact duplication of your teeth. Even better, your kids will love them, and wear them because they can be custom made with their favorite colors.

PlaySafe Sport Mouth guards offer 9 times more protection, they fit better and athletes can breathe easier using them. Simply put, the level of protection is far superior.

Play safe cost more than over the counter because they are custom made and the material used is made only for sports guards. But, replacing a single tooth can cost $3,000 or more, not to mention the lifetime maintenance costs. Isn’t it worth the extra expense? Call Dream Smile Dental to make your appointment for a PlaySafe Mouth Guard.
