    Understanding Sports Mouthguards

    Sports mouthguards are protective devices designed to cover and cushion the teeth and surrounding tissues during athletic activities. They are commonly used in contact sports such as football, rugby, hockey, and boxing, where there is a risk of injury to the mouth and jaw. The primary purpose of a sports mouthguard is to reduce the likelihood of dental injuries, such as chipped or broken teeth, and to minimize the risk of soft tissue damage to the lips, tongue, and cheeks.

    Wearing a sports mouthguard is important for athletes to help prevent injuries to the oral cavity and reduce the risk of concussions. Many sports organizations and associations recommend or require the use of mouthguards during practices and competitions to ensure the safety of athletes.

    What is the importance of wearing a sports mouthguard?
    At Precision Dentistry of Howard, we understand the crucial role sports mouthguards play in safeguarding your oral health during physical activities. Whether you’re engaged in high-impact sports or recreational activities, a properly fitted mouthguard provides vital protection against dental injuries, preventing issues such as fractures, dislocations, and damage to soft tissues in the mouth.
    Selecting the right sports mouthguard is essential for optimal protection. At Precision Dentistry of Howard, we offer custom-fitted mouthguards that are tailored to your specific dental anatomy. This ensures a snug fit, maximizing comfort and protection. Our team will guide you through the selection process, considering factors such as the type of sport, your age, and any orthodontic appliances you may have.
    While boil-and-bite mouthguards are readily available, they often fall short in providing the same level of protection as custom-fitted options. At Precision Dentistry of Howard, our custom mouthguards offer superior fit, comfort, and durability. They are crafted using advanced materials to ensure optimal shock absorption, reducing the risk of dental injuries during sports activities.
    Regular replacement of your sports mouthguard is crucial to maintaining its effectiveness. At Precision Dentistry of Howard, we recommend replacing your mouthguard at least once a year or more frequently if it shows signs of wear or damage. This ensures that you continue to receive optimal protection for your teeth and mouth during sporting activities.
    Absolutely! We understand the unique challenges faced by individuals with braces. Our custom-fitted sports mouthguards at Precision Dentistry of Howard are designed to accommodate orthodontic appliances, providing a secure and comfortable fit. This ensures that athletes undergoing orthodontic treatment can still enjoy the benefits of proper dental protection during sports activities.
    Maintaining proper hygiene for your sports mouthguard is essential for your oral health. At Precision Dentistry of Howard, we recommend rinsing your mouthguard with cold water before and after each use. Additionally, store it in a ventilated case to prevent bacterial growth. Regular cleaning helps ensure that your mouthguard remains a reliable and hygienic tool for safeguarding your teeth during sports.
    Absolutely! Protecting young smiles is a priority at Precision Dentistry of Howard. We offer custom-fitted sports mouthguards specifically designed for children. These mouthguards not only provide excellent protection but are also comfortable, encouraging consistent use. Ensure your child’s oral safety during sports activities by investing in a custom mouthguard tailored to their unique dental needs.
    While over-the-counter mouthguards may offer some level of protection, they often lack the precision and customization of a professionally fitted mouthguard. At Precision Dentistry of Howard, our custom mouthguards are crafted to provide a superior fit, ensuring optimal protection and comfort. Investing in a personalized solution minimizes the risk of dental injuries during sports activities.
    Absolutely. Precision Dentistry of Howard offers sports mouthguards that are not only designed for tooth protection but also to address issues like jaw pain during physical activities. Our custom-fitted mouthguards provide proper alignment and cushioning, reducing the impact on the jaw joint. This can alleviate discomfort and contribute to a more comfortable and pain-free sporting experience.
    At Precision Dentistry of Howard, we understand the urgency of obtaining a reliable sports mouthguard. Typically, the process involves a quick and painless dental impression, which is then used to create your custom-fitted mouthguard. Our efficient team ensures a prompt turnaround, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of personalized protection during sports activities without unnecessary delays.

    Kudos to the team at Precision Dentistry! I have opted to work with Dr O’Donoghue for a full mouth restoration. I am part way through the process and the care has been stellar. Dr O’Donoghue has excellent bedside manner with patients as he listens carefully and addresses all questions and concerns in a professional and caring manner. His staff is top notch…a special shoutout for Katerina! I’m looking forward to a new smile and the ability to eat a normal menu again. I highly recommend Precision Dentistry in Howard!

    Chipped my tooth and called over a dozen other dentist who denied seeing me for being new patient or were booked for months. Precision got me in the same day, cleaned my teeth and two days later i was able to receive tooth bonding. They provided excellent customer service and quality of work! I am beyond satisfied with my results and didn’t hesitate to be scheduled for my regular cleanings. Would highly recommend to those in search of professionalism! Thank you Dr. O’Donoghue, Katerina, and Brianna I am very happy with the results from start to finish!

    My experience with Precision Dentistry has been stellar and a blessing. If you are looking for a one-stop shop (extractions, implants, full mouth reconstruction, etc.) as well as very personalized and accommodating care, then Precision Dentistry should be your choice. Unlike the corporate run, impersonal dental offices that I have experienced, Precision Dentistry provides expert and patient-focused care. Dr. O'Donoghue listens to your needs/issues, carefully explains his diagnosis and options in an easily understandable fashion, and works diligently to deliver the final result in the desired timeframe. After being warned by multiple dentists for years that my teeth were very worn and that I would start experiencing cracked teeth, root canals/crowns, implants, etc., I could choose to address these problems as they arose or do a full-mouth reconstruction. Having yet another cracked, abscessed tooth, I visited Dr. O'Donoghue for advice based upon a referral from another Green Bay dentist - it should be noted that I reside part time on an Island 3 hours from Green Bay. During this initial meeting in mid-July, I told Dr. O'Donoghue that I'd been waiting for 3 weeks for Door County Oral Surgeons to schedule an appointment to extract the troublesome tooth. He took an X-ray and advised that he could extract the tooth that day rather than having me wait for an Oral Surgeon appointment. I said: let's do it. The tooth was successfully extracted; he also did a bone graft to prep for an implant. He then reviewed his 20+ years of experience in full mouth reconstructions, advised that he preferred the durability and consistent look of zirconium crowns (versus a mix and match of crowns and veneers), and outlined his background in working with and accommodating patients who reside hours away from his office (he practiced in Alaska for a couple of decades, where patients traveled great distances). I also advised that I planned to leave the Island for my permanent residence in California at the end of October and asked if there was enough time to do the full-mouth reconstruction before the end of October (every other dentist that I spoke to in Door County and Green Bay said: no). Dr. O'Donoghue said: yes. Dr. O'Donoghue also reviewed crown pricing, which is $1000 less per tooth than the price that my California dental office quoted to me a year ago. In this regard, my California dental office transitioned from a family-style dentist to a corporate-style office a decade or so ago and has a revolving door of new, recently graduated dentists. Besides the cost, this is the other reason why I'd been hesitant to proceed with a full-mouth reconstruction with my California dental office. Precision Dental's boutique-style of expert service and reasonable pricing eliminated my concerns in proceeding. It is now the beginning of October and I have 27 zirconium crowns and the implant prepped for the tooth that was extracted in mid-July - Dr. O'Donoghue will make and install the implant (28th crown) when I return to Wisconsin in May 2024. I'm closing in on my 60th birthday and I must say that this is the best medical/dental care that I have experienced in my lifetime. In this regard, not only is Dr. O'Donoghue a gem, but so are his assistants (Katerina and Sophia). Thank you Precision Dentistry!

    The whole experience went excellent. Everyone was very thorough. The dentist was especially thorough explaining the whole process. When I left I felt a lot better about the implant process.

    Absolutely fabulous implant consultation. Both Katrina and Dr. Craig were extremely thorough. They walked us through the entire implant process. Showing us the differences, explaining how each one functions as well as walked us through step by step how the process would begin. Highly recommend.

    I want to thank everyone for the best pain free tooth extraction I've ever experienced. Doc was right when he commented the worst it tastes the better it works. 😎 Even after the numbing wore off I (my nosey tongue) had to check and see if it was really gone because there was no pain. I'm not complaining !! Thanks again, Pam
