Sports Mouth in Guard Quesnel, BC

Services

Sports Mouth Guards

Active sports are a great way to stay fit, but unexpected impacts can lead to costly dental injuries. Whether your child plays minor hockey or you participate in local mountain biking, martial arts, or rugby, protecting your teeth should be a key part of your gear.

At Elite Dental, we fabricate custom sports mouth guards in Quesnel to help cushion your teeth during high-impact activities. Schedule an appointment to help protect your smile on the ice, field, or trail.

What Does a Sports Guard Do?

A sports mouthguard helps shield your teeth and gums from damage. When an impact occurs to the jaw or mouth, the guard spreads the force across a wider surface area instead of letting a single tooth take the full brunt of the hit.

A properly fitted mouthguard helps:

Reduce the Risk of Broken or Chipped Teeth: Cushions hard impacts from sticks, pucks, balls, or elbows.
Protect Soft Tissues: Covers sharp enamel edges so your lips, cheeks, and tongue aren’t cut against your teeth during a collision.
Shield Dental Work: Helps protect existing restorations, crowns, bridges, or orthodontic appliances.
Support Jaw Joint Health: Reduces physical strain on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) caused by sudden jaw impacts.

Professional Dental Guards vs. Store-Bought

Over-the-counter guards found at retail stores offer basic coverage, but they are mass-produced and often fit loosely.

Custom dental guards made by a dentist offer several advantages:

Precise Fit: We take exact digital scans or molds of your mouth, helping the guard fit snugly onto your teeth without slipping.
Better Comfort & Compliance: Because custom guards are trimmed to your unique gumline, they are easier to breathe and talk through. As a result, athletes are more likely to keep them in.
Strong Shock Absorption: We use durable materials that provide strong protection without a bulky feel.

Who Needs a Sports Guard?

Mouthguards aren’t just for collision sports like hockey or football. Any sport where there is a risk of falls, sudden contact, or flying equipment warrants mouth protection.

We frequently fit custom guards for kids, teens, and adults participating in:

Ice Hockey & Ringette
Lacrosse, Soccer, & Rugby
Martial Arts & Boxing
Mountain Biking & BMX
Basketball & Volleyball
Skateboarding & Snowboarding

CDCP

Elite Dental proudly accepts the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), making essential dental care more affordable for Canadians without private insurance.

Wisdom Teeth Extraction

We perform gentle and efficient techniques to make wisdom tooth removal as comfortable as possible.

Tooth Fillings

When minor tooth decay or small fractures occur, natural-looking tooth-colored (composite) fillings restore both the structure and strength of your tooth while blending naturally with your natural smile.

Tooth Extractions

When a tooth is too severely damaged, decayed, or compromised to be saved, a gentle extraction removes the problematic tooth to protect your oral health.

Sedation Dentistry (Oral, Nitrous Oxide)

Feeling anxious about your dental visit? You’re not alone—and we’re here to help. We offer safe and effective oral sedation and nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to help you feel calm and comfortable throughout your appointment without putting you fully to sleep.

Preventive Dentistry

Routine care is the foundation of long-term oral health. Our preventative services focus on regular exams, digital imaging, and early detection to protect your natural teeth and prevent issues.

Emergency Dentistry

We prioritize same-day emergency appointments and treatment when possible. Book today to get the urgent care you need.

Dentures

Custom removable dentures offer a practical solution for replacing multiple missing teeth or full arches. We offer both partial and full denture options.

Dentist For Seniors

Aging can bring unique oral health considerations, including gum recession, dry mouth, or wear on existing dental work. We provide thoughtful, adaptable care designed to keep mature smiles comfortable and functional.

Dental Implants

Missing a tooth? We’ve got you covered. With our digital implant planning and in-house CBCT scan, we’ll check if you have enough bone and walk you through your options—so you can get back to smiling with confidence.

Teeth Cleaning

Professional cleanings remove stubborn plaque and tartar buildup that daily brushing and flossing miss. Our dental hygiene visits help keep your gums healthy, freshen your breath, and reduce the risk of gum disease.

Same Day Crowns

Have a broken or missing tooth? We offer same-day crowns and bridges to help restore your smile quickly and comfortably. Using modern digital scanning and in-office milling technology, CEREC allows us to design, create, and place a permanent crown in a single visit.

Dental Crowns

A crown is a protective cover for a tooth that has suffered extensive decay, cracking, or structural damage. Custom-fabricated to match your natural tooth shape, it helps restore your biting function.

Dental Bridges

If you are missing one or more adjacent teeth, a custom dental bridge can fill the gap. Anchored securely to neighbouring natural teeth or implants, bridges help restore your oral function.

Teeth Bonding

Dental bonding uses a tooth-colored composite resin to repair minor imperfections such as small chips, gaps, or spots of discoloration. It is a conservative option that usually requires minimal tooth preparation.

Smile Makeover

Considering a full-mouth smile makeover? Let’s build a plan around your goals. Whether you want to enhance aesthetics, restore function, or address several dental concerns, we’ll guide you through a personalized consultation and create a comprehensive treatment plan.

Teeth Whitening

Professional whitening treatments help lighten surface stains caused by food, drink, and age. We offer controlled, efficient options to help restore a brighter appearance to your smile.

Veneers

Address uneven spacing, minor misalignment, worn enamel, or persistent discoloration with a single treatment solution with veneers.

Root Canal Treatment

Experiencing dental pain? Your tooth may still be saved. If the tooth is restorable, a root canal can help relieve pain and preserve your natural tooth—often in a single visit.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

Invisalign treatment offers a discreet way to straighten misaligned teeth using custom-made, clear removable aligners. Digital scanning allows us to plan your treatment step-by-step, helping you work toward better alignment and improved bite function without traditional metal brackets.

Family Dentist

Our practice provides coordinated care for patients of all ages under one roof. We tailor our treatment plans to support the changing dental needs of young children, teens, adults, and seniors.
