Whether you’re charging down the soccer field, wrestling on the mat, or taking a hit on the basketball court, your smile deserves the same protection as the rest of your gear. At Best Natural Smile, we create custom-fitted sports guards for athletes of all ages, with a special focus on helping Santa Monica’s high school athletes compete confidently and safely.

Why Every Student Athlete Needs a Sports Guard?

A sports guard (also called a mouthguard) is one of the simplest, most effective pieces of protective equipment an athlete can wear. Yet it’s one of the most commonly skipped. The American Dental Association estimates that athletes who don’t wear mouthguards are significantly more likely to suffer a dental injury, which can mean broken teeth, knocked-out teeth, or damage to the jaw that requires extensive (and expensive) treatment.

For high school athletes in particular, the stakes are high. These are the years when adult teeth are fully in, orthodontic work may be underway, and a dental injury can have lasting consequences. A custom sports guard from our Santa Monica dental office is an easy, affordable way to protect your teeth for a lifetime.

Custom Sports Guards vs. Store-Bought Options

We get it — the boil-and-bite guards at the sporting goods store are cheap and convenient. But there’s a real difference in protection and comfort. A custom sports guard made at Best Natural Smile:
Coral line-art heart-shaped tooth logo
Fits your athlete’s exact bite for superior cushioning and impact absorption
Coral line-art tooth logo with soft curves
Stays in place during play without being held in place by clenching
Orange circle icon with white number 3
Is thin enough to breathe and communicate easily — no excuses not to wear it
Orange circle icon with white number 3
Can be made to accommodate braces or other orthodontic appliances
Orange circle icon with white number 3
Lasts far longer than over-the-counter alternatives
When a guard fits well, athletes actually wear it.

Built for Athletes in Every Sport

We love working with athletes to customize our treatments to the demands of their sport. Sports are high-pressure enough; we want to make sure a preventable dental injury never gets in the way of your enjoyment of the game. Dr. Feitelberg and our team take the time to understand your needs and fit you with a guard designed for your level of activity.
Using our comfortable digital scanning technology, we capture a precise impression of your teeth with no messy trays required. The result is a durable, well-fitting sports guard that you’ll want to wear consistently.
