For Grinding, Snoring and Sport
For Grinding, Snoring and Sport
Mouthguards are useful to protect your teeth from dental injuries while playing sport. You might need a mouthguard if you have a jaw problem, snore, or have sleep aponea. A custom-made mouthguard can help reduce headaches and jaw pain, protecting your teeth from wearing away, and giving you a better night’s sleep.
Night guards
For Grinding
Protect your smile at night with a custom-made guard!
Clenching or grinding your teeth while you’re asleep is pretty common, and can be the underlying cause of headaches, tooth pain, jaw aches and damage to your teeth.
A custom-made night guard is recommended for people that grind or clench their teeth at night, by protecting the teeth from wear. The guard is shaped to a mould of your natural teeth, it will act as a cover over your teeth to prevent them from grinding against each other and can provide some relieve to the jaw joint to help relieve associated pain.

Sports Mouth Guards
For contact sport
Protect your smile!
Sports mouth guards are recommended for people who participate in contact sports where accidents can easily occur and damage your teeth. Mouth guards come in all different colours, but did you know that not all mouthguards are created equal?
Mouth guards that you can buy over the counter or online often fit poorly and offer little protection from impact to the teeth. We make custom fitted mouthguards just for you, so you can invest in the best protection for your teeth on the field.

Do you or your partner suffer from snoring that keeps someone up at night? Or Sleep Apnoea?
At Morphett St Family Dental, we are trained to provide specialised appliances for snoring and sleep apnoea, called a mandibular advancement splint, or MAS.
It’s a custom-made oral appliance that fits over the upper and lower teeth, similar to a mouthguard.
