Protect your smile on and off the field

Dental injuries during sport are one of the most common — and most preventable — causes of tooth loss. A custom-fitted mouthguard from Smile Spot Mawson Lakes provides reliable protection and comfort, so you can focus on the game without worrying about your teeth.

Whether you're playing AFL, rugby, basketball, boxing, hockey, or any contact sport, a professionally made mouthguard is an important piece of your protective equipment.

Custom vs store-bought mouthguards

Custom-fitted (from your dentist)

  • Made from impressions of your own teeth — precise fit every time
  • Stays securely in place during play
  • Doesn't interfere with breathing or speech
  • Thicker, higher-quality dental-grade material
  • Greater absorption of impact forces

Over-the-counter mouthguards are generic, often bulky or loose, and provide significantly less protection. A professional mouthguard is an investment worth making for anyone playing regular contact sport.

Sports that benefit from a mouthguard

Any sport that involves physical contact, fast-moving objects, or a risk of falls can benefit from wearing a mouthguard. This includes AFL football, rugby, soccer, basketball, hockey, boxing, martial arts, netball, cricket, skateboarding, BMX, cycling, gymnastics, and water polo.

Even non-contact sports carry a risk of falls or collisions — if in doubt, ask us at your next appointment.

How we make your mouthguard

Step 1 — Impressions

We take a quick impression of your teeth — this takes just a few minutes and is completely comfortable.

Step 2 — Fabrication

Your custom mouthguard is made from a model of your teeth using high-quality, dental-grade materials.

Step 3 — Fitting

You come back to collect your mouthguard. We check the fit and make any minor adjustments needed.

Caring for your mouthguard

Rinse your mouthguard with cold water before and after each use, and store it in the protective case we provide. Keep it out of direct sunlight and heat. Replace it each season, or sooner if it becomes damaged or doesn't fit as well as it should — especially important for children whose teeth are still developing.
