FAQs
Can I remold the mouthguard if the fit isn't right?
Yes, the Shock Doctor Gel Max can be remolded multiple times if you are unsatisfied with the initial fit, provided the material has not been damaged by excessive heat.
How do I clean my mouthguard?
Rinse with cool water after use. You can also use a mild soap or an antimicrobial mouthwash. Do not use hot water to clean it.
Is this mouthguard safe to use with braces?
This model is generally not recommended for use with braces unless specifically indicated, as the mold may interfere with orthodontic hardware. Consult your orthodontist.
How often should I replace my mouthguard?
It is recommended to replace your mouthguard at the start of every season or if you notice significant signs of wear, such as thinning or loss of shape.
Does this mouthguard come in different sizes?
The Gel Max is designed as a one-size-fits-most solution thanks to the customizable gel lining.
Troubleshooting
Mouthguard feels too loose after molding
You may have left it in the hot water for too short a time or did not apply enough pressure during the molding process. Re-boil and re-mold carefully.
Mouthguard is difficult to breathe through
Ensure the breathing channels are not blocked by teeth alignment; adjust the positioning during the initial molding phase to clear the airway passages.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-level shock absorption for impact protection
- Customizable fit through the boil-and-bite process

- Requires careful adherence to molding instructions
- Gel material may wear down over extended, heavy use
- Not suitable for use with braces without specialized consultation
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, perform the 'boil-and-bite' process by submerging the guard in hot water according to the provided timing guidelines, then pressing it firmly against your teeth and biting down gently to create an impression. Avoid using boiling water for too long, as it may deform the protective frame. For compatibility, ensure you have a clean, dry storage case when not in use. Clean the mouthguard after every session with cool water or a mild antimicrobial mouth rinse. Never store it in direct sunlight or hot vehicles, as heat can warp the protective structure.
