At SmileBright Dental, we believe some of the best dental treatment is the treatment that prevents an injury from happening in the first place.
At SmileBright Dental Sunnybank Hills, we provide custom-made sports mouthguards designed to help protect teeth, gums, lips, and jaws during sporting activities.
Dental injuries can occur in an instant and often without warning. A collision, fall, elbow, ball, or accidental impact can result in broken teeth, damaged restorations, cuts to the lips and cheeks, or injuries to the jaw.
Many of these injuries can be serious, costly, and in some cases permanently affect the appearance and function of the teeth.
At SmileBright Dental, we strongly believe prevention is one of the most valuable services we can provide. A custom sports mouthguard is a simple investment that can help prevent significant dental trauma and protect your smile when it matters most.
A useful comparison is a helmet.
Most people would never consider riding a motorcycle or bicycle without wearing a helmet because they understand the importance of protecting themselves from injury.
A sports mouthguard performs a similar role for your teeth. It helps absorb and distribute forces that may otherwise be transferred directly to the teeth, gums, and jaw during an impact.
Without adequate protection, sporting injuries may result in:
Unfortunately, many of these injuries require emergency dental treatment, root canal therapy, crowns, implants, or ongoing maintenance. In many cases, the cost and inconvenience of treating dental trauma far exceeds the investment in a custom mouthguard.
Custom sports mouthguards are recommended for both children and adults participating in activities where contact or impact may occur.
This includes sports such as:
Even sports considered low-risk can occasionally result in dental injuries.
Many patients are familiar with over-the-counter mouthguards available from pharmacies and sporting stores.
While these products may provide some protection, they are often bulky, uncomfortable, and may not fit securely.
A custom mouthguard is designed specifically for your teeth and bite, providing:
Because the appliance is customised to your mouth, patients are often much more willing to wear it consistently.
SmileBright Dental continually invests in advanced technology to improve patient experience and treatment quality.
Using our state-of-the-art iTero Lumina scanner, we can capture highly accurate digital models of your teeth without traditional impressions in many cases.
Through continued education, training, and a commitment to innovation, our team has developed advanced skills in the design and manufacturing of custom dental appliances.
Sports mouthguards do not need to be boring.
Custom mouthguards are available in a range of colours and combinations, allowing patients to personalise their appliance to suit their team colours, favourite colours, or individual style.
This is particularly popular with children and teenagers and can help encourage consistent wear during sport.
Creating a custom mouthguard begins with an assessment of the teeth, bite, and oral health.
This may include:
The information gathered allows us to create a customised appliance tailored specifically to the patient.

A custom mouthguard can provide significantly better comfort, fit, and protection compared with many over-the-counter alternatives.
Poor fit is one of the most common reasons people stop wearing mouthguards. A custom-made appliance may improve both comfort and protection.
Patients with braces often require specially designed mouthguards to help protect both their teeth and orthodontic appliances during sport.
Changes in tooth position, growth, or dental treatment may affect fit. An assessment can determine whether a replacement is required.
Custom mouthguards are individually designed for your teeth and generally provide improved fit, comfort, and protection.
