FAQs
Is this mouthguard suitable for children?
The Safegard Essential Mouthguard is designed for general use, but children should be supervised during the molding process to ensure safety and a proper fit.
Can I use this with braces?
Generally, boil-and-bite mouthguards are not recommended for use with braces as the material can lock onto the brackets. Consult your orthodontist for a specific guard.
How do I know if it fits correctly?
A correct fit should stay in place on your upper teeth without you needing to bite down or use your tongue to hold it.
How often should I replace the mouthguard?
You should replace your mouthguard if it shows signs of wear, biting damage, or if your dental structure changes significantly.
Can I clean it with toothpaste?
It is best to rinse with cold water or a specialized mouthguard cleaner. Abrasive toothpastes can scratch the surface, potentially harboring bacteria.
Troubleshooting
Mouthguard is too loose
You may need to re-mold the guard. Re-submerge it in hot water to soften the material and repeat the biting process, applying more pressure to the gum line area.
Mouthguard feels too bulky
Ensure that you are not biting through the material during the molding process. If discomfort persists, the guard may have been left in the water too long; consider replacing if the integrity is compromised.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Safegard Essential Mouthguard, bring a pot of water to a boil, then remove it from the heat source. Submerge the guard for the duration specified in the provided instructions, then briefly cool it before placing it against your upper teeth. Bite down firmly but gently, and use your fingers to press the edges against your teeth and gums for a tight seal.
Care Instructions
- Rinse with cold water after every use.
- Store in a clean, ventilated case to prevent bacteria buildup.
- Keep away from excessive heat or direct sunlight to avoid deformation.
- Inspect the guard regularly for signs of wear or biting damage; replace if the material becomes thin or torn.
