Description

A mouth guard is a soft, flexible device worn over the teeth to protect the mouth from injury. Commonly used in contact sports like boxing, football, and hockey, it helps prevent broken teeth, jaw injuries, and cuts to the lips and tongue. Mouth guards are also recommended for people who grind their teeth at night (a condition called bruxism). They work by cushioning the teeth and absorbing impact. Available in custom-fit, boil-and-bite, or stock varieties, they vary in comfort and protection levels. Regular cleaning and proper fit are essential for effectiveness and hygiene.
