FAQs
Is this mouthguard suitable for braces?
This mouthguard is primarily designed for standard use. If you have braces, please consult your orthodontist before use, as standard mouthguards can sometimes interfere with orthodontic hardware.
Can I remould the mouthguard if the fit is wrong?
Yes, the mouldable construction allows for re-heating and re-fitting if the initial attempt does not provide a secure fit.
How often should I replace the mouthguard?
You should replace the mouthguard at the start of every season or sooner if you notice visible signs of wear, biting through the material, or if it no longer stays in place securely.
What is the best way to clean the mouthguard?
Rinse it with cool, clean water after each use. You can also use a mild antimicrobial soap or a dedicated mouthguard cleaner occasionally. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
Does this product come in different colors?
Yes, this model is available in Red, Blue, and Black variations.
Troubleshooting
Mouthguard feels loose or falls out
The molding process was likely incomplete. Re-soften the mouthguard in hot water and re-bite to create a tighter custom impression.
Difficulty breathing or talking
The guard may be sitting too far back or is too thick. Ensure it is trimmed if necessary (if permitted by sport rules) or re-mould to ensure it sits snugly against the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Nike Alpha CE Mouthguard, place the guard in hot (not boiling) water for the recommended time to soften the material. Once pliable, place it in your mouth and bite down firmly, using your tongue and fingers to press the edges against your teeth for a precise fit.
Care Instructions:
- Rinse thoroughly with cool water after every use.
- Store in the provided protective case when completely dry to prevent mold growth.
- Inspect the guard regularly for signs of wear, such as tears or thinning, and replace if the structural integrity is compromised.
- Avoid exposing the guard to excessive heat, such as leaving it in a hot car, as this will deform the shape.
