Sports Guards

Athletic mouth guards are generally used to protect the teeth from injury during sport activities. There are different types of guards: stock mouth protectors, boil and bite mouth protectors and custom-fitted mouth protectors.

Stock mouth guards are preformed and ready to wear. They are inexpensive and can be found in any sporting goods store. One disadvantage to the stock guard is that there isn't much that can be done to adjust the fit, they make breathing difficult and are bulky. They provide little to no protection and most dentists do not recommend them.

Boil and bite mouth guards can also be purchased in a sporting goods store and may offer a better fit than the stock guards. This version of mouth guard is made out of thermoplastic material can be placed in hot water to soften up and then placed in the mouth and shaped around the teeth using fingers or tongue pressure.

Custom- fitted mouth guards are the designed for the individual patient and can be obtained from your dentist. An impression of your mouth is made and sent to a lab to be created. This form of mouth guard provides the most protection and is highly recommended.

Perio Protect System

Perio Tray® delivery makes oral baterial management easier. The most commonly prescribed solution with the Perio Tray® is the oxidizing and oxygenating agent Perio Gel® with 1.7% hydrogen peroxide. The Perio Tray ® places the gel deep into pockets and holds it there so the oxidizing agent can debride the slimy matrix covering the biofilm and dissolve the most exposed baterial cells. The oxygenating action of the peroxide then changes the microenvironment of the pocket and works against anaerobic bateria. As the biofilm communites decrease and inflammation begins to subside, the host has new opportunity to heal.*

The Perio Tray® requires a doctor's prescription, and patients follow usage instructions at home. For most patients, treatment is just minutes each day. Re-evaluation visits are scheduled to monitor the patient's health, and doctors modify wearing times as conditions improve.

With Perio Tray® delivery you can treat the full-arch in all stages of disease, from early signs of gingivitis through advanced periodontitis. Intervening at the earliest stages gives you a pro-active approach to improve your health and prevent tissue destruction. Patients with more severe cases may reduce the scope of invasive procedures and the risks of bactermia associated with mechanical intervention.
