Unlike commercial boil-and-bite devices, a professional guard is fabricated from a precise digital scan or physical model of your direct upper dentition. We leverage premium, multi-layered biocompatible materials that cushion impacts, distributing high-friction kinetic forces evenly across your entire bone architecture to protect against tooth loss and horizontal root fractures. Because the internal margin tightly mirrors your unique gum line contour, the appliance locks in position automatically without requiring you to clench your jaw. This allows athletes to communicate commands clearly, breathe freely, and remain focused on their game.
Stays completely locked in place even during massive high-impact play sequences.
Shields delicate lip margins, inner cheeks, and gingival structures completely.
Allows athletes to shout team communications easily and inhale maximum oxygen streams.
Specially contoured to adapt safely over active braces, dental implants, or missing tooth spaces.
Regularly falls out or gets spit out mid-play, leaving teeth completely exposed.
Subjecting materials to hot water thinning compromises critical thickness at high-impact corners.
Requires constant active clenching to hold in place, causing fast airway fatigue.
Cannot adapt safely around orthodontic wires, which can cause severe lacerations during impact.
Football, hockey, rugby, lacrosse, wrestling, and mixed martial arts — where mouth protection is strictly required by league regulations.
Basketball, soccer, baseball, softball, volleyball, and gymnastics. Dental fractures are highly common here due to stray elbows or ball impacts.
Skateboarding, mountain biking, rock climbing, and inline skating. Uncontested, sudden contact with concrete can cause severe dental trauma without warning.
Athletes with active braces require custom guards to protect both soft lip tissues and fragile brackets from blunt force impact damage.
We take a fast, clean digital scan or traditional impression of your upper teeth. The process requires less than 5 minutes and introduces no gagging or discomfort.
Your model is formed with heat-hardened, multi-layered resin materials. We customize thickness settings to match your specific position and sport type.
You return for a quick fit check. Dr. Piontek verifies marginal bite stability, handles any micro-adjustments, and sends you home ready to compete safely.

A professional custom mouth guard typically ranges between $150 and $300, depending on thickness parameters and sport type complexity. Many PPO dental insurance options fund a portion of this under preventive codes. It remains a tiny fraction of the cost required to repair a knocked-out tooth structure.
Yes, absolutely. We fabricate specialized orthodontic mouth guards engineered to fit comfortably over brackets. They provide high impact defense while leaving space for teeth to shift safely into their planned alignments.
For adult athletes, a custom guard delivers durable defense for 1 to 3 years. For growing children and teens whose dental structures are shifting, replacements are required more frequently. We evaluate structural fit at every 6-month cleaning block.
The American Dental Association officially suggests mouth guard protection across 29 distinct sports activities. Non-contact sports like mountain biking, basketball, or gymnastics carry elevated risks for dental trauma from sudden drops and collision impact forces.
Clinical research indicates that a properly fitted, professional mouth guard can minimize concussion risks by absorbing and distributing violent impact forces before they reach the jaw joint and skull base. Loose, thin store-bought options fail to supply this distribution safety.
We coordinate specialized guard tracks that protect teeth while allowing orthodontic wires to move teeth safely.
