About

Mouth Guards

There are many types of mouthguards available from cheap, over-the-counter types to professionally custom-fitted mouthguards. Over the counter mouthguards do not provide enough protection against injuries to the teeth or jaws, and are often so uncomfortable that they are rarely worn. Our custom-made mouthguards at Oxenford Dental Centre are designed to provide superior protection during physical activities. We create each mouthguard from precise impressions of your teeth, ensuring a perfect fit that offers maximum comfort and protection. Made from durable, high-quality materials, these mouthguards are built to withstand impact and safeguard against costly, painful and disfiguring dental injuries. Start your sport season with a custom mouthguard, play with confidence and remember it's easier to protect your teeth than to repair them!

A health fund rebate (up to 100%) for mouthguards custom-made by our dentists is available.
