Whether you play rugby on the weekend, box competitively, or your child is starting hockey at school, protecting teeth and jaws is essential. At South Kensington Medical & Dental, we are proud to offer professionally made, custom-fit sports guards (gumshields) designed for maximum comfort, protection, and performance.
Dental injuries during contact sports are common. Chipped teeth, knocked-out teeth, cuts to lips and gums, and even jaw injuries can occur. A well-made sports guard dramatically reduces the risk of these injuries by absorbing and dispersing the impact of blows to the face and mouth.
Unlike shop-bought “boil and bite” guards, a custom sports guard is made from an exact digital scan of your teeth. This ensures a precise fit that is comfortable to wear, stays securely in place, and allows you to breathe and speak easily while playing. This is particularly important for children, teenagers, and competitive athletes who need to stay focused during training and matches.
We make sports guards for adults, teens, and children. Whether you are a weekend player or playing at an elite level. Our guards are ideal for rugby, hockey, football, basketball, martial arts, boxing, MMA, lacrosse, cricket, and more. If your sport has a risk of impact to the head, you should be wearing a mouthguard when you play.
We’ll check your teeth and gums, discuss your sport and level of play, and take either a digital scan.
Your guard is created in a dental lab to the highest standard, ensuring a precise fit.
You will then return to the practice for a try in. We will make any fine adjustments to ensure he best comfort and retention.
Your guard is ready for immediate use.
Most sports guards are ready within 7–10 working days, though faster turnaround can often be arranged if you have an urgent fixture.
With proper care, a custom gumshield can more than just one season. We will show you how to clean it, store it, and check for signs of wear. For children and teens whose teeth are still developing, we recommend a new guard each season or after major dental changes (for example, after braces are removed).
