In brief:
1-3 weeks
The mold of your teeth should take no longer than 30 minutes.
Then the mouth guard will need to be made. If the mouth guard needs to be sent to a lab, it probably will be done in 2-3 weeks. However if it's just a protective mouthpiece, some dental offices can have it done within a day.
