Mouth Guards & Nose Guards

Gum Shields and Mouth Guards

Gum shields are not only used to protect the teeth and gums, but are important in protecting the skull during contact sports, and therefore reducing damage to the jaw and reducing the chances of concussion.

While many rugby players may choose to have a custom gum shield, those who opt for a boil in the bag style mouth guard need to be aware of how to mould a gum shield to fit it effectively.

While the Opro Shield Mouth Guard has become a market leader in the field of Rugby, where personalised gum shields have been used in the marketing strategy, Shock Doctor is gaining ground and the Mueller mouth guards are a low cost alternative.
