What Are Dental Mouthguards?
Dental mouthguards are protective appliances worn over the teeth to absorb force and protect your teeth from injury. They are commonly used for:
Sports protection, such as football, hockey, or basketball
Bruxism (teeth grinding) relief and night-time tooth protection
TMJ comfort and jaw muscle relief
General dental injury prevention during physical activity
Custom mouthguards deliver superior fit, comfort, and protection compared to stock or boil-and-bite options.
They are very thin and totally clear, so they are virtually undetectable once they are on your teeth.Â
Benefits of Mouthguards
Custom Fit & Comfort: Tailored to your dental anatomy for optimal protection and comfort while playing sports or sleeping.
Enhanced Protection: Absorbs shock and helps reduce the risk of broken or chipped teeth.
Durable & Long-Lasting: Made from medical-grade materials built to withstand repeated use.
Improved Sleep & Jaw Comfort: Night guards can ease tension from grinding and help reduce jaw pain.

My confidence has went up definitely because of my situation. You are excellent, have a great customer service, very honest, knowledgeable, etc. You ROCK to say the very least.
i LOVE this place! i had a bad experience at another dental office and i switch to relax and LET ME TELL YOU. i feel so good every time i walk in and out of there. and all the workers there are so nice and respectful!!
During the process of my visit today, during my fillings, my fear of needles was respected and the process was explained as we went along. Which was kinda fun to be honest and all in all it was enjoyable. Everyone keep up the great work and thank you all 🙂
I had a very pleasant visit today. This was my first appointment with a new dental practice in nearly 30 years. I was anxious but immediately put at ease by Dr. Matt, Cameron, Kelsey, and all other office staff I had the pleasure of meeting. Luna was an unexpected plus!
Relax Dental has a very friendly atmosphere. Each person takes the time with you and answer any and all questions. The work is thorough and they take pride in the quality of their work. I recommend Relax Dental to anyone!
