With sport season in full swing across the Goulburn Valley, there's no better time to think about protecting your teeth. At Goulburn Valley Dental Group, the team offers custom made mouthguards that are built to fit you - not whoever happened to be standing in the sports store aisle.

The process is simple. All it takes is a quick 15 minute appointment at the Shepparton clinic or the Numurkah clinic, where the team takes an impression of your mouth. From there, your mouthguard is custom made right in house. Allow around two to three weeks for it to be ready, and you'll have protection that's been designed specifically around your teeth and bite.
The difference between a custom mouthguard and a store-bought option is significant. Custom guards are designed to absorb impact properly, sit comfortably without the bulk of generic alternatives, and last considerably longer. They help reduce the risk of broken teeth, jaw injuries and soft tissue damage - the kinds of injuries that can mean lengthy and costly treatment down the track.
There's also a fun side to it. Goulburn Valley Dental Group offers a large range of colour options, including footy team colours and even sparkles, so kids and adults alike can show a bit of personality while staying protected on the field.
For HCF and Australian Unity members, even better news - mouthguards are covered under your extras benefits at Goulburn Valley Dental Group as the clinic is a preferred provider for both funds.
