Sports Guards

A Sport-guard or gum shield is the most important piece of equipment a contact sport's player should own.

The mouth-guard not only protects your teeth and gums, it can reduce damage around the jaw and your chances of getting concussed. As every mouth is different, so every mouth guard should be moulded to fit perfectly around the top half of a player's mouth.

The best way to do this is to see your dentist, who will take moulds of your mouth and make sure the shield is custom made for you.

The other type of mouth-guard is the "boil and bite" type which you mould yourself using hot water. We do not recommend these as they tend not to fit properly and are often removed during course of the game.

The cost of a custom fitted sports guard in colours of your choice is €60.
