Mouthguards
Mouthguards are essential protective gear for anyone involved in physical activity, helping to prevent injuries to the teeth, lips, cheeks, and tongue, as well as reducing the risk of concussions and jaw fractures At Barwon Heads Dental, we custom-make mouthguards using high-impact, medical-grade EVA material, in line with Australian safety guidelines. Designed for comfort and maximum wearability, our mouthguards eliminate the discomfort of poorly fitting options, encouraging consistent use. We've proudly partnered with Barwon Heads Dental from the beginning, supplying mouthguards to individuals, sporting clubs, and local communities. Supporting junior athletes is especially important to us, and we’re proud to continue our tradition of hosting regular club fitting days across the coast.
Bleach Trays
At Barwon Heads Dental, we create slim, custom-fitted bleach trays right here in our clinic to help you whiten your teeth comfortably and effectively at home. Designed to fit snugly and evenly over your teeth, our trays ensure even application of whitening gel with minimal irritation to your gums.
Because we make them in-house, you get a quick turnaround and custom-fit trays that are long-lasting and comfortable—without the bulk. Achieve your desired shade with no waiting and no hassle. For safe, noticeable results you can trust, pair them with our recommended professional-grade whitening gel.
Splints
At Barwon Heads Dental, we design and manufacture custom in‑house splints (night guards and occlusal guards) using our cutting-edge digital workflows, seamlessly integrating 3D scanning and printing technology. Our skilled team leveraging the same advanced protocols used in our mouthguard lab, ensures each splint precisely mirrors your bite, offering optimal comfort, durable protection from teeth grinding (bruxism), and relief from jaw tension. By keeping the entire process on-site, we reduce lab turnaround times and refine the fit in real-time, so you receive a splint that feels right the moment it’s fitted.
Whether you’re dealing with nightly grinding, TMJ discomfort, or protecting dental restorations, our clinician-led approach guarantees a tailored solution designed for long‑term oral health and comfort.
Essix Retainers
At Barwon Heads Dental, we create clear, custom-made Essix retainers right here in our on-site lab. Designed to maintain the position of your teeth after orthodontic treatment and clenching and grinding. These retainers are made to desirable thickness, comfortable, and virtually invisible—ideal for daily and night wear without affecting speech or appearance.
By making them in-house, we ensure a faster turnaround, precise fit, and the ability to make quick adjustments if needed. Whether you're replacing a lost retainer or getting a new one after treatment. Our experienced dental team Maggie and Jane will ensure it's done with accuracy, efficiency, and care.
Crowns
At Barwon Heads Dental, we offer high-quality crowns made right here in our clinic using advanced digital scanning and in-house milling technology. This means no messy impressions and no waiting weeks for a lab—just efficient, precise, and beautifully natural-looking results, often completed within 48 hours.
By keeping the entire process under one roof, we ensure a faster turnaround, better fit, and full control over the final look and function of your crown.
