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. 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!

At Fresh Pediatric Dentistry, we understand that every child has unique needs when it comes to comfort and care. That’s why we provide safe and effective sedation options tailored for kids, from mild relaxation with laughing gas to deeper calming methods for complex treatments. Our goal is to make every visit stress-free, comfortable, and positive for your child.
Nitrous oxide, often called laughing gas, is a safe and gentle way to help kids feel calm during dental treatments. It works quickly, wears off fast, and allows your child to remain awake while reducing anxiety and discomfort. This makes it one of the most common pediatric sedation options.
Oral conscious sedation is given in liquid or pill form to help children feel relaxed while staying awake and responsive. It’s ideal for kids with higher dental anxiety or those needing longer treatments. Our team carefully monitors your child to ensure safety and comfort throughout the visit.
IV sedation is recommended for children who require deeper relaxation during more complex procedures. It works quickly through a small IV line, helping your child stay calm and comfortable while our pediatric dentist completes treatment efficiently. Safety is our priority, and your child is monitored closely the entire time.
At Fresh Pediatric Dentistry, we are proud to care for children with a variety of special needs. Our experienced team creates a patient, understanding, and supportive environment tailored to each child’s abilities. With gentle communication, flexible approaches, and a focus on comfort, we make dental visits positive for every child.

Custom sports guards act as a shock absorber, reducing the impact of blows to the face. They help prevent broken or knocked-out teeth, cut lips, tongue injuries, and jaw fractures especially during contact sports like football, hockey, or martial arts.
Protecting the mouth during active growth years is essential. Injuries to developing teeth and jaws can lead to complications that affect alignment, bite, and even facial structure. A sports guard safeguards your child’s natural development.
Store-bought guards can feel bulky or uncomfortable. Our custom guards are tailored to your child’s mouth for a snug fit, making them easier to breathe and speak with so your child actually wants to wear it consistently during games and practices.
We take digital or physical impressions of your child’s mouth to ensure a precise, comfortable fit that stays in place during activity.
Your child’s custom sports guard is crafted using high-quality, impact-resistant materials and can be made in their favorite color or team style.
We make sure your child’s guard fits perfectly and teach them how to wear, clean, and store it properly for long-term use.
