Why Wear A Custom Mouthguard

 

 

Injury Reduction & Prevention

Direct Impact
This is a direct frontal blow to the upper jaw which, if unprotected may result in damage to or loss of teeth, and the possibility of a concussion.

Indirect Impact
This is a more common blow to the lower jaw which, if unprotected can send shockwaves through the skull, fracturing the front teeth, while other,
more severe injuries can result in serious trauma such as concussion, jaw and gum damage.

This is why athletes who use gumshields are at less risk of serious injury following a blow to the face.
