Gumshields In Dublin

We have teamed up with IMPACT Gumshields to offer our patients access to the world’s first custom-fit, 3D printed gumshields.
 
Unlike standard boil-and-bite mouthguards, every IMPACT gumshield is precision-engineered from a scan of your mouth, delivering a superior fit that stays securely in place on your teeth.
 
Offering 198% more impact absorption compared to other custom-fit gumshields, while being 54% smaller and 47% lighter, IMPACT’s technology sets a new standard in both protection and comfort. 
 
Suitable for ages 7 and up, including those with missing or growing teeth, they are a fantastic option for young players and adults alike. 
 
IMPACT also offers a specialised braces gumshield, designed to comfortably accommodate fixed orthodontics so that nobody has to miss out on the protection they deserve. Available in a wide range of colours and with personalised initials.
 
Synergy Orthodontics can take your child’s scan during treatment to request your child’s Impact gumshield. As your teeth move during orthodontics, you will need another gumshield if the previous no longer fits.
 
Alternatively you can book in for your digital scan at Impact directly https://impactgumshields.com/book-a-scan/
