A custom-fitted mouthguard is made from an impression of your own teeth, giving a closer, more comfortable fit than a store-bought boil-and-bite guard. Smiles on Call takes impressions and fits custom mouthguards at your home across Brisbane.
Unlike an off-the-shelf boil-and-bite guard, a custom mouthguard is made from an actual impression of your teeth, so it follows the shape of your mouth precisely rather than a generic mould. This generally makes it more comfortable to wear and easier to keep in place during play.
Custom mouthguards are commonly used for contact and collision sports such as rugby, football codes, hockey, boxing and martial arts, where a well-fitted guard that stays in place matters.
The process is straightforward and carried out at your home.
An impression of your teeth is taken at your home.
A custom guard is fabricated from the impression, in a thickness suited to your sport.
The finished guard is checked at a follow-up visit and adjusted for comfort and bite.
Custom mouthguards are made from EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate), in single or multiple layers depending on the level of contact involved in your sport.
A single layer of EVA material, offering a comfortable, lighter-weight guard.
Best for: lower-contact sports and training.
Two or more layers of EVA laminated together for greater shock absorption.
Best for: contact and collision sports such as rugby or boxing.
Taking the impression at home is just as accurate as in a clinic, without the need to travel.
