At The Dentist in Town we supply 3 types of mouthguard (also known a
gumshields):
-
Unbranded. These are
basic, no nonsense mouthguards made to measure from impressions taken by the
dentist. These bespoke guards offer many times more protection than any
over-the counter or ‘boil and bite’ gumshield. £45
- Playsafe Mouthguards are custom made oral protection for adults and
children. They are recommended by schools and sports associations throughout
the UK and are worn by professional sports teams.
If you or your child participates in any kind of physical sport there is
a risk of dental damage. Mouthguards are like the crash helmets of teeth and
are almost universally worn in contact sports such as Boxing, Rugby, Hockey,
Lacrosse and Martial Arts.
Playsafe mouthguards are custom made to be of an exact fit from moulds
taken by dentists. And they come in a huge range of designs and colours for you
to choose. The cost of these depends on the design and the degree of protection required.
Whatever contact sport you play you
should always wear a Mouthguard – and independent tests have shown that no
other type of mouthguard is safer than Playsafe.

MOUTHWEAR: AUTHORIZED PROVIDER
What is Under
Armour Performance Mouthwear? Under
Armour Performance Mouthwear™ is a completely new category of performance gear
designed for all athletes looking to get better in their chosen sport.
How does UA
Performance Mouthwear™ differ from mouthguards? Mouthguards
provide protection. UA Performance Mouthwear, which includes mouthpieces and
mouthguards powered by ArmourBite™ Technology, does more: It enhances
performance. It is not only backed by some of the biggest names in pro sports,
it's also recommended by dentists, pro trainers, strength coaches and wellness
experts.
How does it
work? Clenching the jaw triggers
the production and release of a cascade of hormones, including cortisol, the
stress hormone. UA Performance Mouthwear powered by ArmourBite™ Technology
prevents teeth clenching and relieves pressure on the temporomandibular joint
(TMJ). By preventing the excessive production of hormones, the body is able to
unlock its full potential.
Are there
research studies to support the performance claims? Absolutely.
There are studies published in peer-reviewed journals to support the claims.
