FAQs
Is this mouthguard suitable for children?
The Safegard Essential Mouthguard is designed to be universal; however, its size is generally geared toward adolescents and adults. Check if it fits securely without excessive bulk.
Can I wear this with braces?
It is generally not recommended to use a standard boil-and-bite mouthguard with braces, as the molding process can cause the guard to lock onto the brackets. Consult your orthodontist.
How long should I keep the guard in hot water?
Please follow the specific time duration mentioned in the provided product insert, as timing is critical for the thermal-plastic material to reach the correct pliability.
How do I clean the mouthguard?
Rinse thoroughly with cold water. You may use a mild, non-abrasive mouthwash or soap, but avoid using hot water which may deform the shape.
What does Level 2 protection mean?
Level 2 protection indicates that the product has been tested to withstand moderate impacts, suitable for most common contact sports.
Troubleshooting
The mouthguard feels loose after molding
You may need to re-mold the guard. Carefully repeat the boil-and-bite process, ensuring you apply firmer pressure against your teeth while it is soft.
The guard is uncomfortable or hits the gums
Trim the excess material using sharp, clean scissors after the initial mold, ensuring you do not cut too close to the teeth-impression area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Safegard Essential Mouthguard, follow the provided instructions exactly: submerge the guard in hot (not boiling) water for the recommended duration, then carefully place it over your teeth and bite down gently to imprint your bite. Ensure you do not chew on the material while it is soft. For care, rinse the mouthguard with cool water after each use and store it in a ventilated case to prevent bacterial growth. Keep it away from direct heat sources, such as sunlight or heaters, which may cause the material to warp.
