Made for junior sport
This kids mouthguard is shaped for younger players who need a lower-profile gum shield for training, school sport and match day. Once correctly fitted, the mouldable material forms around the upper teeth to help the mouthguard remain comfortably positioned during activity.
The Adult (+12) option is also available for older youth and adult players. If the player is between sizes, has a small or large mouth for their age, or is undergoing dental treatment, ask a dentist or orthodontist which size and type of sports mouthguard is appropriate.
Suitable sports
Designed for sports where contact or accidental facial impact may occur, including:
- Rugby
- Boxing and kickboxing
- MMA and Brazilian jiu-jitsu
- Karate, judo and taekwondo
- Hockey and lacrosse
- Football and basketball
- Wrestling and other school contact sports
How to fit your boil-and-bite mouthguard
Always read and follow the fitting leaflet supplied with the product, because heating instructions can vary. A responsible adult should supervise the fitting of a junior mouthguard.
- Prepare hot water exactly as directed in the enclosed instructions.
- Place the mouthguard in the water for the stated time.
- Remove it carefully with a suitable utensil and allow it to cool until safe to place in the mouth.
- Centre it over the upper teeth, bite gently and press the material around the teeth as directed.
- Cool the fitted mouthguard in cold water so it keeps its new shape.
- Check the fit before sport. It should feel secure and comfortable without causing pain.
If the first fit is not secure, let the mouthguard cool fully and repeat the process only if permitted by the enclosed instructions. Stop using it if fitting causes discomfort or if the material becomes damaged or distorted.
