how long will a guard last





Our Guards are super strong and durable and built to last years. So for Adults you should find your guard last 8 years or more. We often give away free cleaning tablets for adults to keep your guard looking its best. However FOR GROWING KIDS you will find guards need to be replaced regularly. Usually every year. If you are buying new shoes, you are probably buying new guards too. This is why health funds often cover 2 per year! It really just depends on how fast they grow. Sometimes particularly with boys some years kids wont need a new one, as the previous guard still fits. Check it is comfy and still very tight and make the most of your guard and keep using it. But when those growth spurts start 2 may be needed per year.



Do you make guards for braces





Yes ! We do, the appointment takes a little longer as we protect the patients mouth by applying orthodontic was to the braces, in order to make the impression taking a comfortable experience. It also serves to leave a channel for the braces when wearing the Mouthguard. Players wearing Braces are at a higher risk of injury to the upper lip, so wearing a custom fitted Mouthguard is strongly advised.



HOW LONG DO THEY TAKE TO MAKE ?





Our Turn around Times are the Best in Perth.

Most Guards (Off Peak) are ready in just 2-3 Days!

We offer same day Emergency Guards if needed. (small fee applies)

During peak season (the start of winter sports) Guards can take up to 5 Days to be ready for collection.

We are famous for exceeding delivery time expectations.



but what if my child has missing or erupting teeth ?





The short answer is don't worry its fine! Because our guards are all one off's and custom made each child has an impression. From the impression our highly skilled technicians make a model of your child' mouth. Then using a process know as "blocking it out" they literally sculpt the shape of the expected tooth on the model, allowing a channel inside the mouthguard for the developing tooth to grow into over the coming season.
