Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a custom-fit sports mouthguard from GuardX?

GuardX mouthguards are made just for you - snug, comfy and built to perform. We cut out the extra bulk so you can breathe and talk like an elite-pro while keeping your teeth, soft tissues and jaw protected. Stay in the game for longer with a mouthguard designed to take the hits, so you don’t have to.

How is a GuardX custom-fit mouthguard different from a standard boil-and-bite?

Standard boil-and-bite mouthguards are 'one size fits all' - they’re bulky, uncomfortable and offer reduced protection. GuardX mouthguards are made from cutting-edge 3D dental technology, so it fits like a glove. Manufactured in the UK with advanced dental materials and strict quality control, our mouthguards are optimised for performance and comfort. That means better protection and easier breathing, so you can stay focused and ready for action.

Are GuardX custom-fit mouthguards good for all sports?

Absolutely! Our GuardX custom-fit mouthguards work great for all kinds of sports from the field to the ring. When you customise your guard, simply select your thickness so we can tailor the fit and materials to optimise impact absorption and protection specific to your needs. This ensures you get the best performance and protection, no matter how intense the game gets.

Can I order a custom-fit mouthguard if the athlete has braces or is undergoing orthodontic treatment?

Yes! Our custom-fit mouthguards can be designed to fit athletes with braces or other orthodontic appliances. Wires/brackets can damage soft tissues if not properly protected. We create specially designed guards to ensure a safe, comfortable fit during your orthodontic treatment. Just let us know about your braces when ordering, and we’ll tailor the design to keep you protected from impact and soft tissue injuries.

How do I take care of my GuardX custom-fit mouthguard?

Keeping your GuardX mouthguard in top shape is easy! After every use, just rinse it with cold water and give it a gentle clean with mild soap or a mouthguard cleaner. Never leave it in hot places or out in the sun - heat can distort the shape of your mouthguard. Always allow it to dry fully before popping it back in your case. Take care of it and it’ll take care of you.

How often should I replace my GuardX custom-fit mouthguard?

Mouthguards take a beating, so it’s advised to swap yours out every 1-2 years - or sooner if you spot any cracks, warping or if it doesn’t fit right anymore. Keep it fresh to keep yourself protected!
