Mouth Guard Rubbing Gums? Here’s How to Avoid the Issue.

Mouth guards are meant to protect your teeth from grinding, clenching, or during sports. There are night guards that you wear at night to prevent damage done by grinding and clenching. There are also sports mouth guards that athletes wear to protect themselves from light and heavy contact sports. If you choose the wrong mouth guard, it can lead to the mouth guard rubbing gums and causing irritation. We’ll look at some of the key features that a mouth guard should have when you select one right for you.

Boil and bite mouth guards can be purchased very cheaply at Amazon, Walmart, or your local drug store. While these may provide the bare minimum in protection, a lot can go wrong with them because of how cheaply made they are. Boil and bite mouth guards are made with cheap material that may result in the mouth guard rubbing gums. When the mouth guard does this, it can irritate your gums, causing them to bleed, or cause swelling.

That cheap material wears out and can become ribbed, torn, or tattered leading to unnatural pieces of the mouth guard rubbing gums. Pieces of the mouth guard may even fall off and you may end up swallowing those pieces in your sleep if it’s a night guard or during a sporting event if it’s a sports mouth guard. Boil and bite mouth guards are notorious for falling apart after a few months of wearing them requiring you to repurchase one.

Let’s talk about the protection and comfort of a mouth guard rubbing gums. When you get an over-the-counter mouth guard you’re at risk for more potential serious injuries because the mouth guard isn’t a custom fitting one. Your dentist or an online dental lab SportingSmiles can craft you a custom night guard or custom sports mouth guard. These guards are designed to fit only your smile. The benefit of this is that the custom mouth guards are much more durable, offer higher quality protection against impact, teeth grinding, or clenching, and are more comfortable because they are formed around your teeth in an exact build.

When a mouth guard isn’t crafted by a professional it can result in a poor fit. That poor fit can directly affect your oral care. If your mouth guard is rubbing gums it can cause sores, lesions, swelling, or make your gums bleed. A poor-fitting mouth guard can feel bulky or uneven in your mouth. Some boil and bite mouth guards require you to trim away at the excess material once it’s been boiled. If not properly trimmed and smoothed, this can lead the irritation in the mouth or a general uncomfortable feeling.
