Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do children aged 4–7 really need a mouthguard for sport?
A: Yes — dental injuries are one of the most common sports injuries in young children, and even at junior level, contact sports carry a real risk of impact to the face. A mouthguard protects developing baby teeth (which guide adult tooth alignment) and helps reduce the risk of jaw and concussive injuries. Many junior sporting codes now mandate mouthguard use from the earliest age groups.
Q: How do I fit a junior boil-and-bite mouthguard on a young child?
A: Soften the guard in warm (not boiling) water for 20–25 seconds. Cool slightly, then ask the child to bite down gently and use your fingers to press the guard against their teeth and gums. Hold for 20–30 seconds, then rinse in cold water to set. For young children, parental assistance during fitting is essential. If the fit is not ideal, the process can be repeated.
Q: When should I upgrade from the Junior to the Youth size mouthguard?
A: The Junior size suits children approximately 4–7 years. As the child grows into the 8–14 year range and more adult teeth come through, upgrade to the Youth size for a correct fit. A poorly fitting mouthguard provides less protection — replace when the guard feels loose or no longer fits comfortably.
Q: Can I cut the junior mouthguard to fit better?
A: Small adjustments can be made by trimming along the back edge with scissors if the guard extends too far. Trim conservatively and refit after each trim. Do not trim the front impact-absorbing area. If the guard continues to not fit well despite trimming, consult your dentist or try a different size.
