FAQs
Is the Safegard Essential Mouthguard latex-free?
Yes, this product is completely latex-free, making it suitable for those with latex allergies.
What protection level does this mouthguard offer?
It provides Level 2 protection, which is designed for robust safeguarding during most standard physical and contact activities.
Can I remold the mouthguard if the fit isn't right?
Yes, the boil-and-bite material allows for re-fitting, provided the material has not been overheated or damaged during the initial attempt.
Does it meet any safety certifications?
Yes, it conforms to the BSI DD-253-2001 safety standard.
How should I clean the mouthguard?
Rinse it with cold, clean water after every use. For deeper cleaning, you may use a mild soap, but ensure it is thoroughly rinsed.
Can I trim the mouthguard for a better fit?
Yes, if the edges are uncomfortable or trigger a gag reflex, you can trim small amounts of excess material using clean, sharp scissors.
Troubleshooting
Mouthguard is too loose after fitting
You may need to repeat the boil-and-bite process carefully, ensuring you create enough suction while biting down to draw the material against your teeth.
Material feels distorted or melted
The water temperature was likely too high. Unfortunately, once the material has been over-heated and permanently warped, the mouthguard must be replaced.
Mouthguard causes gagging
Use clean scissors to carefully trim the posterior edges of the mouthguard that extend too far back toward the soft palate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your mouthguard, follow the included manufacturer instructions to boil, soften, and mold the unit to your teeth. Ensure the water is at the specific temperature recommended; if the water is too hot, the integrity of the material may be compromised. After each use, rinse the mouthguard thoroughly with cold water. Allow it to air dry completely before storing it in a vented protective case to prevent bacterial growth. Avoid exposing the guard to extreme heat or direct sunlight when not in use to prevent distortion.
