FAQs
Can I wear this with braces?

How often should I replace my mouthguard?

How do I clean the mouthguard?
Rinse with cold water after every use and occasionally clean with mild soap and water or an anti-bacterial mouthguard spray.
Can I talk while wearing the Gel Max?

Troubleshooting
Mouthguard feels loose after fitting
You may need to repeat the boil-and-bite process to re-mold the gel lining for a tighter fit.
Edges feel sharp or uncomfortable
After the initial fitting, you can carefully trim excess material on the edges using clean, sharp scissors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the mouthguard, perform the boil-and-bite procedure: submerge the mouthguard in boiling water for the time indicated on the packaging, then carefully remove and bite down firmly to mold the gel liner to your teeth. Ensure you do not bite too deep into the material. After each use, rinse the mouthguard with cold water or a specialized mouthguard cleanser to maintain hygiene. Store it in a ventilated case to allow moisture to evaporate, preventing bacteria buildup. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight or hot vehicles, as extreme heat can cause the material to warp and lose its protective shape.
