FAQs

Can I remould the Opro Instant Custom Mouthguard?

No, this mouthguard is designed for a single custom fit. Once moulded and set, it cannot be remoulded to achieve the same level of accuracy and protection.

How long does the mouthguard last?

With proper care and regular cleaning, a custom-fit mouthguard typically lasts for one season of sports. It should be replaced if it shows signs of wear, becomes loose, or if dental changes occur.

Is this mouthguard suitable for juniors?

OPRO offers specific Junior models designed for smaller mouths. Ensure you select the appropriate size for the user.

Can I use this mouthguard with braces?

It is generally not recommended to use self-fit mouthguards with braces. For individuals with braces, it is best to consult with a dental professional or consider a specially designed orthodontic mouthguard.

What is the difference between this and a boil-and-bite mouthguard?

The Opro Instant Custom Mouthguard uses advanced gel and fin technology with a dual compression cage to achieve a much more precise, dentist-level custom fit compared to standard boil-and-bite mouthguards, offering superior retention and protection.

How do I clean my mouthguard?

Rinse thoroughly with cold water after each use and clean with a soft toothbrush and cool water. Mild, non-abrasive soap can be used if necessary. Avoid hot water or harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Mouthguard feels too loose or doesn't stay in place.

Ensure you followed the moulding instructions precisely. Try remoulding following the steps carefully, focusing on biting down firmly and using your tongue and fingers to create a tight seal. If the issue persists, the material may have been over-softened or not moulded correctly.

Difficulty breathing or speaking while wearing the mouthguard.

Check if the mouthguard is positioned correctly and fully seated. Ensure no excess material is blocking airways. If remoulding is needed, try to create channels for breathing and speech during the shaping process.

Mouthguard is too thick or bulky.

This is typical of triple-layer protection. Ensure you have moulded it as tightly as possible to your teeth and gums. The design prioritizes protection over minimal thickness.

Water is still inside the mouthguard after cooling.

During the moulding process, suck firmly to create a vacuum seal against your teeth and the roof of your mouth. This helps expel excess water and ensures a tighter fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Boil Water: Bring a kettle to a boil and let it stand for 30 seconds.
  2. Prepare Mouthguard: Place the mouthguard in a small bowl and pour the hot (not boiling) water over it. Allow it to soften for the time specified in the instructions (typically 1-2 minutes).
  3. Remove & Cool Slightly: Carefully remove the mouthguard from the water using a spoon. It will be hot. Let it cool for a few seconds until it is comfortable to touch.
  4. Mould: Place the mouthguard into your mouth, aligning it with your upper teeth. Bite down firmly and use your fingers to press the outside of the mouthguard against your teeth and gums, shaping it to your unique dental structure. Simultaneously, use your tongue to press the inside against your teeth and roof of your mouth. Suck any excess water out to create a vacuum seal.
  5. Set: Once moulded, immerse the mouthguard in cold water for at least 30 seconds to set the fit.

Compatibility:

  • Primarily designed for upper teeth.
  • Suitable for most individuals engaging in contact sports.
  • Not recommended for individuals with fixed braces unless advised by a dental professional.

Care:

  • Rinse thoroughly with cold water after each use.
  • Clean with a soft toothbrush and cool water. Mild, non-abrasive soap can be used if necessary.
  • Store in its protective case in a cool, dry place.
  • Avoid exposing the mouthguard to extreme heat (e.g., direct sunlight, car dashboard).
