Sports Guards at We Care Dental in Dublin, California

Sports Guards in Dublin, CA

A custom-fitted sports guard is made from an impression or scan of your own teeth, so it stays in place, allows you to speak and breathe, and protects teeth during contact sports far better than a boil-and-bite guard.

Is this right for me?

  • Children and teens playing school or club sports
  • Adult athletes in contact or high-impact sports
  • Anyone who has already chipped a tooth during sport

What to expect

  1. 01

    A scan or impression

  2. 02

    Fitting and adjustment

    The finished guard is checked for fit and comfort before you take it home.

Worth knowing

  • Treatment plans are personalized after an exam — recommendations depend on your oral health, history and goals.
  • Costs and insurance coverage are explained up front, in plain language, before you decide.
  • Let the team know if dental visits make you anxious; the pace of the appointment can be adjusted.
