Mouth Guards

Mouth guards are protective appliances used mainly by those involved in sports or other physical activities. With sports mouth guards in Green River, Wyoming, your child can enjoy their time playing and being active while you ensure their oral safety. We invite you to call Birch Family Dental at 307-875-3658 if you have questions or would like to arrange a visit with our dentist, Dr. Birch.

Our dentist and team are dedicated to keeping your smile healthy and free from discomfort. To help us do this, we provide several types of mouth guards at our office. For our athletic patients, we often recommend a type of mouth guard called an athletic mouth guard or sports guard. Sports guards fit over your teeth while you play sports and participate in other athletic activities to protect your smile from injury. Sports guards are especially important for our patients who play high-contact sports such as wrestling, football, hockey and rugby; however, all types of athletes can benefit from an athletic mouth guard. Whether you play soccer, basketball or baseball, a sports guard can be a great way to protect your smile and keep it safe.

While a number of types of athletic mouth guards are available, a custom-made mouth guard is the most effective in protecting your smile. This type of mouth guard is designed to comfortably fit your smile and prevent dental injury, such as knocked out and chipped teeth. A sports guard can also help to prevent injury to the soft tissues of the mouth, including the tongue, lips, cheeks and gums.

We invite you to contact our office today to learn more about mouth guards and their benefits. We look forward to caring for your smile!

The cost of mouthguards at Birch Family Dental ranges from $75-250 total, with the price varying based on the type of mouthguard needed (sports, nightguard for grinding, or specialized TMJ appliance) and the materials used in fabrication. Custom-fitted mouthguards provide superior protection, comfort, and durability compared to over-the-counter options, as they’re precisely made to fit your unique dental anatomy.

Key Factors Affecting Mouthguard Costs:

  • Guard Type: Sports guards versus bruxism (grinding) guards or TMJ appliances.
  • Materials Used: Different materials offer varying levels of durability and comfort.
  • Complexity: Basic protection versus specialized therapeutic designs.

At Birch Family Dental, we understand the importance of protecting your teeth from sports injuries, grinding damage, or TMJ-related issues. We provide financing options to make custom mouthguards affordable, and our team will help determine if your insurance provides coverage for these protective devices, especially when prescribed for medical conditions like bruxism.
