Product Information

Full details

The Opro Self-Fit Gold Jaws Gumshield is designed for athletes participating in high-impact contact sports who need superior dental protection. Its key benefit is the ultra-impact resistant dual-layer construction combined with an ultra-fit retention system for comfort and security. A potential caveat is that it requires a self-fitting process, which, if not done correctly, may impact performance.

FAQs

What level of protection does the Opro Gold Jaws Gumshield offer?

The Opro Gold Jaws Gumshield offers Level 4 protection, which is considered a high level of impact resistance suitable for all contact sports.

How long does it take to fit the mouthguard?

The self-fitting process typically takes just a few minutes once the water is boiled and ready.

Can I use this mouthguard if I have braces?

No, this standard mouthguard is not recommended for use with fixed braces. OPRO offers specialized 'Brace' mouthguards designed for individuals with orthodontic appliances.

How does the antimicrobial additive work?

The Biomaster antimicrobial additive is integrated into the mouthguard and case materials, actively working to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria by up to 99.99%.

What is the dental warranty included?

The Opro Gold Jaws Gumshield comes with an up to £15,000 dental warranty, providing significant financial coverage for sports-related dental injuries.

Can I drink and breathe easily while wearing it?

Yes, the mouthguard is designed with ultra-flow gel and fin technology to allow for enhanced breathability and ease of speaking and drinking while worn.

How should I clean my mouthguard?

Rinse with cold water after each use and clean with a soft brush and mild soap or mouthwash. Allow it to air dry before storing in its case.

Troubleshooting

Mouthguard is too loose after fitting.

Ensure you bit down firmly and used your fingers to mold it tightly against your teeth and gums. Try the fitting process again, focusing on a strong bite and vigorous suction to remove air.

Difficulty breathing or speaking with the mouthguard in.

This may indicate an improper fit. Repeat the fitting process, ensuring the fins are properly molded to your teeth and that the mouthguard rests comfortably without obstructing your airway.

Mouthguard feels too bulky.

The dual-layer construction is designed for maximum protection. Ensure you have followed the fitting instructions precisely for the most streamlined fit possible. If discomfort persists, consider if a lower-profile mouthguard might be more suitable for your specific sport's requirements, though it may offer less protection.

Mouthguard tears or shows signs of damage.

Inspect the mouthguard regularly for wear and tear. If any damage is observed, discontinue use immediately and replace the mouthguard to ensure continued protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions:

  1. Preparation: Boil water and prepare a bowl of cold water. Ensure the mouthguard is rinsed under cold water before fitting.
  2. Boiling: Immerse the mouthguard in boiling water for the recommended time (refer to product instructions, typically 60 seconds).
  3. Cooling: Carefully remove the mouthguard from the boiling water and immerse it briefly in the cold water to cool slightly.
  4. Fitting: Place the mouthguard in your mouth, biting down firmly onto the patented fins. Use your fingers to press the mouthguard against your teeth and gums, ensuring a tight seal. Suck vigorously to draw air out from between the fins and your teeth.
  5. Moulding: Keep biting down and pressing for at least 60 seconds or until the mouthguard is fully set.
  6. Finishing: Rinse with cold water to set the fit. If the fit is not perfect, the fitting process can be repeated.

Compatibility:

  • This mouthguard is designed for use in all contact sports. It is suitable for ages 7 and up.
  • For individuals with fixed braces, OPRO recommends their specialized 'Brace' mouthguards, as fitting a standard mouthguard over braces can compromise both the fit of the mouthguard and the braces themselves.

Care Instructions:

  • Rinse the mouthguard thoroughly with cold water after each use.
  • Clean with a soft brush and mild soap or mouthwash solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Store the mouthguard in its provided protective case. The case includes a Biomaster antimicrobial additive to help reduce bacterial growth.
  • Allow the mouthguard to air dry completely before storing it in the case.
  • Replace the mouthguard every season or if it shows signs of wear and tear, or after any significant impact.
