Custom Made Gumshields

Gumshields 4U custom made mouthguards supplied to Coventry, West Midlands, Warwickshire and surrounding areas.

To reduce or prevent damage from a direct or indirect blow during sports activity, custom-made mouthguards are an essential part of an athlete’s kit.

Why should you choose a custom- made mouthguard over a boil-and-bite?

They fit better as they are made from an accurate impression of your mouth.
They can be upto 2.5mm thicker, acting as a shock-absorber and spreading the load after a blow.
The contact area is greater.
Breathing is not affected.
Will not move during activity.
Speech will be less impaired.
Recommended by the British Dental Health Foundation.

Injury reduction and prevention

There are two types of impact to the oral area:

Direct

This is a direct frontal blow to the upper jaw which, if unprotected, may result in damage to or loss of teeth and the possibility of concussion.

Indirect

This is a more common blow to the lower jaw. The lower teeth are pushed upwards, bringing them into contact with the upper teeth. Significant damage can be caused to the other teeth and to the jaw.

All materials are of the highest quality and bear the CE mark. Gumshields4U conform to the Medical Device Directive ISO 13485 & ISO 9001
