At Fresh Pediatric Dentistry, we know how active kids can be and how important it is to keep their smiles safe during sports. Our custom sports mouth guards are designed to protect your child’s teeth, gums, and jaw from injury during physical activity. Whether they play football, soccer, basketball, or martial arts, a properly fitted mouth guard is essential gear. Unlike store-bought options, our sports guards are custom made for comfort, durability, and maximum protection.

Injuries to the mouth are common in youth sports and can lead to broken teeth, cuts, and even jaw damage. A custom sports guard offers a strong layer of defense to help absorb impact and prevent trauma, reducing the need for treatments like pediatric dental crowns. It’s a simple yet powerful way to protect your child’s oral health.
At Fresh Pediatric Dentistry, we make getting a sports guard easy and stress-free. We take precise impressions of your child’s teeth to create a snug, comfortable fit that won’t distract them during activity. Plus, we offer fun color options that make wearing one more exciting!
