Custom-Fitted Mouthguards
We want to assist you and your child with full-service dental care at East Lake Smiles Pediatric Dentistry. If your child grinds their teeth at night due to bruxism, which is causing TMJ or headaches, it might be wise to invest in a custom-fitted mouthguard. We also use clear aligner mouthguards to provide mild corrections to teeth alignment. Learn more about how we utilize customized mouthguards in Atlanta, GA.
Custom-Fitted Mouthguards for Children
A mouthguard is a dental appliance used by patients, including children. A custom-fitted mouthguard has been made with a mold to model the child’s teeth, gums, and mouth tissue. As a result, the custom-fitted mouthguard for children will stay in place and be most effective for dental corrections.
Do Pediatric Dentists Make Mouthguards
Yes, our pediatric dentist at East Lake Smiles uses a custom-fitted molding process to make mouthguards for kids. Using a quick-dry molding material, our dental assistants help capture the child’s exact teeth and gum lines. This mold is used to recreate a mouthguard printed in a highly durable plastic.
