Sports Mouthguards for Adults & Children
At Hamilton Dental & Prosthetic Lab (HDPL), we create high-quality, custom sports mouthguards for athletes across Waikato, NZ — keeping your smile safe on and off the field.
Sports Mouthguards
If you or your child play contact sports, a custom-fit mouthguard is a must. These professionally moulded guards help protect your teeth and jaw from impact, reducing the risk of serious injury and long recovery times.
Staying active is great for your health, but sports and exercise are also common causes of dental injuries. That’s why investing in a high-quality, custom-made sports mouthguard is essential — whether you're a seasoned athlete or a weekend warrior.
When to Wear Your Sports Mouthguard
Accidents can happen at any time, especially in high-contact sports. For the best protection, it’s important to wear your mouthguard during both practice and competition. Consistent use greatly reduces the risk of dental injuries .
Why Tailor-made?
While store-bought mouthguards may seem cost-effective, they often lack the fit and protection needed for serious impact.
Custom-made sports mouthguards are a safer, more durable option — designed to fit your bite precisely for maximum comfort and protection. We create high-quality, custom-fitted mouthguards to help safeguard your smile during all types of high-impact sports.
Let Us Mould Your Mouthguard
At Hamilton Dental & Prosthetic Lab, prosthetic dental care is our specialty — and we’ve spent years perfecting the craft. We combine advanced techniques, high-quality materials, and the latest technology to deliver custom mouthguards that offer superior comfort and protection, even during the most intense play.
Please allow 1–2 weeks for your custom mouthguard to be moulded and prepared. We recommend booking well in advance of your sports season to ensure a perfect, safe fit.
