Mouthguards are essential for preventing broken or chipped teeth, as well as facial and jaw injuries. To ensure optimal protection and comfort, wearing your mouthguard during warm-ups, training, and games is crucial. Prolon mouthguards utilize a boil-and-bite method for a customized fit.

• Absorbs impact
• Protects teeth, gums, jaws and joints
• Designed to fit mouth and teeth accurately to give better protection
• Has a comfortable fit to enable easy breathing, talking and drinking
• An affordable warm and fit design. Adapts to all mouths.
   

It is important to practice fitting your mouthguard before self-moulding. Please read all instructions carefully before beginning to mould. A good fit will provide maximum protection, comfort and retention.

PREPARING

• Boil 500ml of water. When boiled, pour into large cup.
• Drop your Prolon Mouthguard in the boiling water for 10 seconds. Remove with a large spoon and shake off the water.
• Place the mouthguard immediately into your mouth; it will be warm, but will not burn.
• Push the mouthguard into place, ensuring it fits around all upper teeth and is flat against your front teeth. DO NOT RUSH THIS STEP!
• Bite down firmly and push tongue against the roof of your mouth. With a strong sucking motion, draw out all air and water.
• Use your fingers to press the outside of the mouthguard upward and tight against your gums.
• With your thumb and forefinger, press the mouthguard tight against the roof of your mouth
• Use your fingers to press the outside of your lips and cheeks to further mould the mouthguard

FINISHING

• Rinse your Prolon Mouthguard under cold water for 30 seconds to set the mould.
• Does your mouthguard look like the picture in Step 2? If you do not get a proper fit first time, repeat steps 3-11.
• To remove excess material from mouthguard, trim back with small scissors until a comfortable length is achieved. Prolon Mouthguards have been designed to cover all your upper teeth.
• When correctly fitted, your mouthguard will provide you with a personal fitting, designed for maximum protection.
• We recommend you wash your mouthguard with a mild antiseptic after each use. Rinse in clean water and dry thoroughly before replacing in the container.
   

Signs your mouthguard isnt fitting correctly

• Your ability to breathe or speak is impacted
• You need to clench your teeth to hold the mouthguard in place
• You can remove it easily with your tongue
• The mouthguard isn’t fitting up against teeth and gums
• Your gums are painful
• Any other discomfort
• If your child is using the mouthguard, make sure they don’t continually remove the mouthguard and chew on it. That could indicate it isn’t fitted correctly.
   

SOLUTIONS

• Re-fit your mouthguard following steps 3-11 in the fitting guide above
• Prolon Mouthguards are designed to cover all your upper teeth and should avoid most of your soft palate. If there is extra material, trim it back with small scissors until a comfortable length is achieved.
• Prolon Mouthguards comes in three sizes, so a smaller or larger size may be needed for a more comfortable fit.
• We recommend for children between the ages of 6-16 to replace their mouthguard every season to ensure comfort for the continually growing teeth, jaw and bones.
