What are Mouthguards?
A dental mouthguard, also known as a gumshield, is essentially a thick shield that you wear over your teeth. It is a dental appliance that is designed to provide protection for your teeth, lips, and jaw. Vogue Dental can prescribe and provide a range of mouthguards in Sydney, depending on your needs, you dental condition, and any other treatments you may be undergoing with us at our Sydney Studio.
There are several reasons why you might need a mouthguard in Sydney:
Mouthguards for Sports
Say you’re a sports or exercise enthusiast. People often worry about straining their muscles or getting external bruises and cuts, but one overlooked area of damage is to the teeth. High contact sports such as rugby can result in severe dental damage. Even non-contact sports participants might sometimes need to wear mouthguards.
If you participate in any activity, competitive or recreational sport where impact, contact, and collision are likely to occur with frequency, you should look into mouthguards in Sydney, and there’s no better place to look than with Vogue Dental. We offer custom fitted sports mouthguards designed for shock absorption from direct hits — and they come in a variety of colours.
Mouthguards for Clenching and Grinding
If you grind your teeth subconsciously or while asleep, you may have a dental condition known as bruxism, which can cause significant damage to your teeth and gums over time. Patients with this condition are often prescribed mouthguards to protect their teeth from damage and preserve their smile’s cosmetic value.
Mouthguards prescribed for teeth grinding are most commonly required during sleep, when you’re unaware of your grinding. However, they may also be worn during the day if you clench or grind your teeth subconsciously as a habit.
Vogue Dental offers customised grinding splint mouthguards to prevent night-time and daytime teeth grinding.
Orthodontic Mouthguards
If you’ve had an orthodontic treatment, your dentist will probably recommend wearing a retainer or splint to help your teeth maintain their new position. An orthodontic mouthguard in Sydney will prevent your teeth from moving and save you the costs of further treatment.
At Vogue Dental, we provide aftercare retainers and mouthguards in Sydney for your top and bottom arches. Depending on how your treatment goes and your dental condition, we recommend wearing the provided retainer, splint, or mouthguard to help maintain the corrected positions.

While you can technically eat with a mouthguard in, you shouldn’t need to. Sports mouthguards should only be worn while you’re exercising, and nightguards should only be worn while you’re sleeping. You can, however drink water with a mouthguard in – but you should avoid drinks with sugar, which can damage your mouthguard.
