FAQs
What is a mouth guard and why does my child need one?
A mouth guard is a protective device worn over teeth to prevent injuries during sports or play. It cushions blows that could otherwise cause chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth.
Are custom mouth guards better than store-bought ones?
Yes. Custom mouth guards are made to fit your child’s teeth precisely, offering better comfort and protection compared to generic, one-size-fits-all versions.
How often should my child wear their mouth guard?
Your child should wear their mouth guard during any physical activity where there’s a risk of impact to the face, such as team sports, biking, or skateboarding.
How do you clean and care for a mouth guard?
Rinse the mouth guard with cool water after each use and occasionally clean it with a toothbrush and mild soap. Avoid hot water which can deform the material.
How often should a mouth guard be replaced?
Since children’s mouths change as they grow, it’s best to check the fit regularly. Typically, mouth guards should be replaced every 6 to 12 months or sooner if damaged.
