Custom-designed mouth guards are made of flexible plastic and molded to fit the shape of your teeth. Mouth guards are recommended to protect the jaw, tongue, cheek lining and teeth during physical activity and sports such as boxing, football, basketball, or other activities where your mouth might get hit. If you are active in athletics, we can help you determine if any kind of guard or appliance is a good option for you. If so, we will take an impression of your teeth to create a custom-fit product for your specific needs. The creation of a mouth guard begins with an evaluation of your needs to determine the most suitable type for your situation. Then precise impressions of your teeth will be taken to create a custom-fit mouth guard tailored to your unique oral anatomy. Once crafted, your mouth guard will be fitted and adjusted for optimal comfort and effectiveness. We'll provide guidance on proper usage, care, and maintenance of your mouth guard to ensure longevity and effectiveness.
"Most people have a family dentist. Someone you call to schedule a cleaning or address a tooth problem. I live quite a distance from Bend and recently had a sudden dental need. I reached out to Dr. Dondo who worked me into his busy schedule and rescued me! He had me on my way with a painless fix! A dentist who "pivots quickly" to make room for a first time patient deserves high praise!! Is it too much to say I may move to Bend because I know a great dentist?! Don't tempt me! Grateful for you Dr. Dondo!!"
