Every year thousands of children are treated for dental injuries, which could have been prevented, or the severity minimised, by wearing a protective mouthguard.

A mouthguard helps absorb the shock experienced by a blow to the face, which might otherwise result in an injury to the mouth or jaw.

Injuries like these can lead to long and potentially expensive treatment to restore teeth and the mouth back to normal function and appearance.

• A professionally custom-fitted mouthguard will provide a better fit and will less likely to be ejected out during a traumatic injury.
• Check your mouthguard every 12 months for optimal fit and protection.

Keep your mouthguard clean and store it in a rigid container, away from heat to ensure it maintains its shape.
