Sports that require a mouthguard are usually the ones where bumps, falls, and fast‑moving balls are part of the game. In Australia, this includes footy (AFL), rugby league and rugby union, soccer, hockey, netball, basketball, boxing, martial arts, and even BMX or skateboarding.
A custom sports mouthguard helps protect your teeth and jaw during these activities by cushioning the impact if you’re hit in the face or land awkwardly. It sits snugly over your teeth and gums, helping to reduce the risk of chipped or knocked‑out teeth, cuts inside the mouth, and jaw injuries. Because it’s made to fit your mouth exactly by our dentist, it’s more comfortable and stays in place better than shop‑bought mouthguards, so you can focus on playing hard and staying safe.
| Feature | Custom Mouthguards (Dentist-made) | Store-Bought Mouthguards (Pharmacy/sports shop) |
|---|---|---|
| Fit and comfort | Made from a precise mould of your teeth, so they fit snugly and feel comfortable. | Come in standard sizes or “boil-and-bite”; often loose, bulky, or awkward to wear. |
| Protection level | Offer better cushioning and coverage, reducing the risk of chipped teeth and jaw injuries. | Less exact fit can mean less protection, especially in high-impact sports. |
| Materials and thickness | Made from stronger, higher-quality plastic that is thinner but still durable. | Often made from thinner, cheaper plastic that can wear down or break more easily. |
| Breathing and speech | Fit closely but still let you breathe and talk without too much effort. | Can feel bulky and may make breathing or talking harder. |
| How long they last | Tend to last longer with proper care because of better materials and fit. | Often need replacing more often as they wear out or lose their shape. |
| Who makes them | Designed and fitted by a dentist or oral health professional. | Mass-produced and sold over the counter with no professional fitting. |
For reliable protection and all-day comfort, a dentist-made custom mouthguard is the clear winner.
The process of getting a custom sports mouthguard at Clyde North Dental Studio is simple and comfortable. It begins with a thorough assessment of your teeth, gums, and jaw to ensure the mouthguard will fit correctly and provide maximum protection.
We then take a precise mould (impression) of your teeth. This mould is used to create a mouthguard that is tailored specifically to your bite. Once your custom mouthguard is ready, we check the fit, comfort, and alignment to make sure it sits securely without causing irritation.
Our team will also provide clear instructions on how to wear, clean, and store your mouthguard properly. This ensures long-lasting protection and comfort every time you play sports.
Taking proper care of your sports mouthguard is essential to maintain hygiene and ensure it lasts longer. You should rinse your mouthguard with cool water before and after each use to remove dirt and bacteria.
Gently brushing it with a soft toothbrush can help keep it clean without damaging the material. It is also important to store your mouthguard in a ventilated case to allow airflow and prevent bacterial growth.
Avoid exposing your mouthguard to high temperatures, such as hot water or direct sunlight, as this can warp its shape. With proper care, your mouthguard will remain effective and comfortable over time.
Custom mouthguards offer a higher level of protection, comfort, and durability compared to boil-and-bite options. Because they are made using a precise mould of your teeth, they fit securely and stay in place during sports activities.
Boil-and-bite mouthguards, on the other hand, often provide a less accurate fit. This can lead to discomfort, slipping, or reduced protection during impact. Poorly fitting guards may also make breathing and speaking more difficult.
Choosing a custom mouthguard from Clyde North Dental Studio ensures you receive a professionally designed solution that supports both safety and performance.
Cleaning and storing your mouthguard correctly helps prevent bacteria buildup and extends its lifespan. After each use, rinse it with cool water and gently brush it using a soft toothbrush.
Allow the mouthguard to dry before placing it in a ventilated storage case. This helps prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to unpleasant odours or bacterial growth.
It is also important to keep your mouthguard away from heat, such as inside a hot car, as this can distort its shape. Following these simple steps will keep your mouthguard clean, safe, and ready for use.
The cost of a custom sports mouthguard can vary depending on the materials used and the level of protection required. While custom mouthguards may have a higher upfront cost than store-bought options, they offer a better fit, improved durability, and long-term value.
At Clyde North Dental Studio, we provide personalised quotes based on your specific needs. Right now, you can get your custom sports mouthguard for $170 (usually $220) for a limited time, valid until April 30. We also aim to make dental care accessible by accepting the Child Dental Benefits Schedule and offering bulk-billed services for Medicare-eligible patients (where eligible).
Investing in a custom mouthguard helps prevent costly dental injuries in the future, making it a smart and practical choice for athletes of all ages.
A custom sports mouthguard can last for several seasons when properly cared for. Its durability depends on how often it is used, how well it is maintained, and whether there are any changes in your teeth or jaw.
For children and teenagers, replacements may be needed more often as their teeth and jaws continue to grow and change. Adults may require a new mouthguard if it becomes worn, loose, or damaged over time.
Regular dental check-ups at Clyde North Dental Studio allow us to assess your mouthguard and recommend when a replacement is necessary to maintain optimal protection.
Yes, custom sports mouthguards are highly recommended for children and teenagers who participate in sports. They play an important role in protecting developing teeth, gums, and jaws from injuries during physical activities.
A properly fitted mouthguard allows young athletes to move comfortably while staying protected. It also helps reduce the risk of dental emergencies, which can be stressful and costly.
As children grow, their mouthguard may need to be replaced to ensure it continues to fit correctly. Our team provides ongoing support to help parents keep their child’s smile protected at every stage.
A well-designed custom sports mouthguard should not interfere with your breathing or speaking. Because it is made specifically for your teeth, it fits snugly and allows for natural airflow.
Unlike poorly fitted or bulky mouthguards, custom options are comfortable to wear and allow athletes to communicate clearly during games or training sessions. This is especially important in team sports where clear communication is essential.
At Clyde North Dental Studio, we ensure your mouthguard is carefully fitted and adjusted so you can perform confidently without any discomfort or restriction.
