FAQs

How do I mold my Shock Doctor Gel Max Mouth Guard?

Boil water, submerge the mouth guard for 30-60 seconds, cool briefly in tap water, then bite down firmly and press with fingers for 20-30 seconds. Finally, cool in cold water to set the shape. Full detailed instructions are included in the 'Setup' section of this guide.

Can I re-mold my mouth guard if the first attempt isn't perfect?

Yes, you can typically repeat the molding process 1-2 times. If it still doesn't fit correctly after multiple attempts, it may be best to consider a replacement.

How should I clean my mouth guard?

Rinse your mouth guard with cold water after each use. You can also clean it with mild soap and water, or a specialized mouthguard cleaning solution. Always ensure it's dry before storing it in a ventilated case.

What sports is this mouth guard suitable for?

This mouth guard is ideal for various impact and contact sports where dental protection is essential, including football, hockey, basketball, martial arts, boxing, rugby, and more.

Is this mouth guard suitable for children?

No, the Shock Doctor Gel Max Mouth Guard (Pink) is designed for adult use. Please refer to Shock Doctor's range of youth-specific mouthguards for children.

How long does a mouth guard usually last?

The lifespan of a mouth guard depends on the frequency and intensity of use, as well as care. Generally, a mouth guard should be replaced at least once a season or every 6-12 months, or sooner if it shows signs of wear, tearing, or damage that could compromise its protective capabilities.

Troubleshooting

Mouthguard does not fit snugly after molding.

The molding process can typically be repeated 1-2 times. Re-boil the mouthguard for the recommended time, cool slightly, and then re-mold following the instructions carefully. Ensure you bite down firmly and use your fingers to press the material against your teeth and gums.

Difficulty breathing or feeling of bulkiness.

Ensure the mouthguard is properly molded and not obstructing your airway. Sometimes, trimming excess material from the back of the mouthguard (if it extends too far) can help, but do so carefully and minimally to avoid compromising protection. The integrated breathing channel should assist with airflow.

Mouthguard falls out easily.

This indicates an improper mold. Repeat the molding process, focusing on biting down firmly and creating suction, pressing the material against all surfaces of your teeth and gums to achieve a tight, customized fit.

Setup: Molding Your Mouth Guard

  1. Gather Supplies: You will need a pot, water, a slotted spoon, and a timer.
  2. Boil Water: Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil.
  3. Submerge Mouth Guard: Carefully place the mouth guard into the boiling water using the slotted spoon. Follow the manufacturer's specific timing instructions, typically around 30-60 seconds. Do not exceed recommended time to prevent damage.
  4. Cool Slightly: Remove the mouth guard from the boiling water and immediately submerge it in cool tap water for 1-2 seconds. This cools the outer layer but keeps the interior pliable.
  5. Place and Bite: Carefully place the mouth guard into your mouth, aligning it centrally. Bite down firmly, sucking out all the air and pressing with your fingers against your lips and cheeks to mold the material around your teeth and gums. Hold this position for about 20-30 seconds.
  6. Cool Completely: Remove the mouth guard and immerse it in cold water for at least 30 seconds to set the shape.
  7. Test Fit: Try on the mouth guard. It should fit snugly and securely without needing to be held in place. If the fit is not ideal, you can usually repeat the molding process once or twice.

Compatibility

This Shock Doctor Gel Max Mouth Guard is designed for adult use only and is suitable for a wide range of impact sports.

Care and Maintenance

  • Clean After Each Use: Rinse your mouth guard thoroughly with cold water after every use. You can also clean it with mild soap and water or a mouthguard cleaning solution.
  • Dry Completely: Ensure the mouth guard is completely dry before storing to prevent bacterial growth.
  • Store Properly: Store your mouth guard in a ventilated case when not in use. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can deform the material.
  • Inspect Regularly: Periodically check your mouth guard for signs of wear and tear, such as tears, holes, or thinning. A damaged mouth guard may not provide adequate protection and should be replaced.
