What it is
A mouthguard made from a digital scan of your mouth, with thickness and number of layers adjusted to your sport, within our sports dentistry area.
Because it fits precisely, it lets you speak and breathe normally during exertion, which is exactly where standard mouthguards fail.
Care and maintenance
- Wash the mouthguard with cold water and mild soap after each use; hot water can warp the material.
- Always store it in its ventilated case, never loose in your sports bag or in a closed, damp place.
- Check it periodically: if you notice it losing its fit, or it’s worn or cracked, it loses some of its ability to absorb impact.
- If you take a blow to the mouth even while wearing your mouthguard, follow our recommendations for dental trauma.
- Regular practice of contact sports such as boxing, MMA or rugby
- Sports with a risk of impact from an object, such as hockey
- Court sports with a risk of accidental collision, such as basketball or football
What the process looks like
- Intraoral scan Digital scan of the mouth, with no impression putty.
- Design by discipline Thickness and number of layers are adjusted based on the sport and level of impact risk.
- Delivery and fitting Try-in and final adjustment to check it doesn't shift when speaking or breathing.
Frequently asked questions
Can the design be personalised?
Yes. Club colours, name, number or logo can be added, permanently built into the mouthguard.
Why isn't a standard mouthguard good enough?
Standard mouthguards don't fit the anatomy of each mouth, tend to shift, and can make speaking and breathing harder during exertion.
How is it cleaned and stored?
Wash it with cold water and mild soap after each use (hot water can warp it) and store it in its ventilated case, never in a closed, damp place.
How often does it need replacing?
In adults, when it loses its fit or wears out, usually every 2-3 years. In children and teenagers, with every relevant change in dentition.
