Custom sports mouthguards in Sheffield

Playing contact sport? A custom-made sports guard cushions your teeth and jaw against knocks — far better than a one-size-fits-all version.

Sports Guards

Protect your smile on the pitch

If you play rugby, hockey, boxing or any contact sport, a knock to the mouth can chip, loosen or knock out teeth in an instant. A custom-made sports guard cushions your teeth, lips and jaw, helping to protect your smile when it matters.

Made from an impression of your own teeth, a professional guard fits snugly and comfortably — so it stays put, lets you breathe and speak, and gives far better protection than a shop-bought, boil-and-bite version.

Questions

Sports guards, answered

A few of the things patients most often ask us about sports guards.

01Why choose a custom sports guard?

A custom guard fits your teeth precisely, so it's more comfortable, stays in place and protects far better than a shop-bought, boil-and-bite version.

02Which sports need a mouthguard?

Any contact or high-impact sport — rugby, hockey, boxing, martial arts, football and more. If there's a risk of a knock to the mouth, a guard is well worth it.

03Can children have a sports guard?

Yes — we can make sports guards for younger players too. As their teeth grow, the guard may need replacing to keep the fit right.

04Are sports guards available on the NHS?

Custom sports guards are usually a private treatment. We'll explain the cost clearly so there are no surprises.

05How do I look after my guard?

Rinse it after use, store it in its case, and bring it to your check-ups so we can make sure it still fits well.

06How long does a sports guard last?

With good care it lasts a good while. We'll check it still fits properly — especially important for growing mouths.
