FAQs
Can I use this if I wear braces?
This mouthguard is primarily designed for standard dental structures. Consult with your orthodontist before use if you have braces, as they may require a specialized guard.
How often should I replace the mouthguard?
It is recommended to replace the mouthguard if it shows signs of wear, tearing, or if the fit becomes loose over time, typically once per season.
Is the storage container dishwasher safe?
It is recommended to hand wash the storage container with mild soap and warm water to prevent warping.
Does this mouthguard come in different sizes?
The D3 Tape Gel Contrast Mouthguard is designed as a universal fit that adapts to your mouth through the molding process.
What should I do if the mouthguard is uncomfortable?
Ensure it has been molded correctly. If discomfort persists, check for sharp edges that can be trimmed or adjusted to better fit your gum line.
Troubleshooting
Mouthguard feels loose or falls out
The fitting process may need to be repeated. Ensure the water temperature is correct and that you bite down firmly enough to create an impression during the molding phase.
Mouthguard causes gag reflex
If the back of the mouthguard extends too far, you can carefully trim the rear edges using clean, sharp scissors after the initial fitting.
Unpleasant odor or taste
Clean the mouthguard thoroughly using a gentle antibacterial soap and ensure it is fully dried before placing it into the storage case.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, submerge the mouthguard in hot (not boiling) water for the recommended duration, then carefully bite down to mold the gel to your teeth structure. Allow it to cool before final use to ensure the shape is locked in.
For maintenance, always rinse the mouthguard with cold water after every practice or game. Use a mild soap or a dedicated mouthguard cleaning solution periodically to prevent bacteria buildup. Always store the guard in its ventilated storage container once completely dry to maintain hygiene and structural integrity.
