Troubleshooting

Mouthguard doesn't fit properly after first boil-and-bite attempt.

You can usually re-boil and repeat the fitting process. Ensure the water is hot enough, and you bite down firmly while molding with your fingers and sucking in to create a tight fit.

Difficulty breathing or feeling restricted while wearing the mouthguard.

Ensure the mouthguard is properly fitted and the integrated breathing channels are clear. A custom fit should allow for comfortable breathing. If still an issue, consider re-fitting or checking if the size is appropriate for your mouth.

Mouthguard feels loose or falls out during activity.

This indicates an improper fit. Re-perform the boil-and-bite fitting process, focusing on biting down firmly and using your fingers to press the material against your teeth and gums to achieve a tighter, more secure mold.

Mouthguard is uncomfortable or causes irritation.

Check for any sharp edges that might have formed during the molding process. These can sometimes be gently trimmed with small, sharp scissors. Also, ensure the mouthguard isn't too large for your mouth; proper sizing is crucial for comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Custom Fitting with Boil-and-Bite

To achieve the optimal custom fit, follow these boil-and-bite instructions:

  1. Boil Water: Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil.
  2. Submerge Mouthguard: Carefully place the mouthguard into the boiling water for the recommended time (check specific instructions included with your mouthguard, typically 30-60 seconds).
  3. Cool Slightly: Remove the mouthguard from the water and let it cool for a few seconds. It should be warm, not scalding hot.
  4. Place and Bite: Position the mouthguard over your upper teeth. Bite down firmly, sucking in to create a vacuum and pressing with your fingers against your lips and cheeks to mold it around your teeth and gums.
  5. Set the Mold: Hold in place for about 20-30 seconds, then remove and cool under cold water to set the shape. If the fit isn't perfect, you can usually repeat the process.

Compatibility

This mouthguard is an all-around performer suitable for virtually all sports requiring mouth protection. It is available in youth and adult sizes, catering to men, women, and kids, ensuring that athletes of various ages and dental structures can find a comfortable fit.

Care

  • After Each Use: Rinse the mouthguard thoroughly with cold water to remove saliva and debris.
  • Cleaning: Periodically clean the mouthguard with a toothbrush and cool water, or a non-abrasive mouthguard cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or hot water, which can degrade the material or alter its shape.
  • Drying: Allow the mouthguard to air dry completely before storing to prevent bacterial growth.
  • Storage: Store the mouthguard in a clean, ventilated case to protect it from dirt and damage.
  • Inspection: Regularly inspect the mouthguard for any signs of wear, tears, or damage. Replace if compromised to maintain optimal protection.
