Best Youth Mouthguards for Martial Arts

Absolutely. Sports-related injuries make up a whopping 36 percent of injuries to children and adolescents. According to the American Dental Association, an estimated 20 percent of sports-related injuries are dental injuries. There's no denying that participating in a contact sport comes with the risk of injury, but your athlete is 60 times less likely to damage their teeth by wearing a protective mouthguard. This may help keep them better protected against unintentional kicks, punches, and elbows to the mouth. On top of that, studies show that wearing a mouthguard may even help reduce the likelihood of suffering a sports-related concussion. No mouthguard is capable of preventing concussions, but they may offer an additional layer of protection. Every parent wants to do everything it takes to minimize the chances of their child being injured, which is why you should give your athlete the protection they deserve.

The first thing you should look for in a youth mouthguard is good shock absorption. You want to make sure that the mouthguard is able to withstand the impact of kicks and punches that your athlete may receive while sparring and competing in martial arts tournaments. Game On Mouthguards are the first guards to receive ADA-acceptance. That's because our guards offer superior protection by fitting snugly to your athlete's mouth. When your athlete wears a Game On guard, they don't have to worry about their mouthguard moving around in their mouth while they're competing. There's less of a likelihood that their guard will fall out of their mouth if they fall or take a hit.

Fitting the guard to your athlete's teeth is a quick and easy process. With other guards, you have to boil the guard before starting the molding process. You don't have to do this with Game On Mouthguards. Just toss it in the microwave for 30 seconds, dip it in a bowl of cold water, then have your athlete bite down on it for two minutes. While they're biting down, the guard will form a mold around their teeth, and will even cover brackets and wires if your child wears braces. Your athlete can remold their Game On guard multiple times, which is especially useful when they have their braces adjusted by the orthodontist. Even better, Game On Mouthguards have a low-profile design that's significantly slimmer than other mouthguards on the market. This makes them more comfortable to wear, especially for athletes with corrective orthodontic gear. That's why we proudly believe that Game On makes the best youth mouthguard for martial arts for braces.

Our mouthguards also have one of the easiest and most straightforward cleaning processes around. Your athlete doesn't have to scrub their guard with a special solution or soak it in disinfection for hours at a time. That's because Game On Mouthguards are made from a special patented material called Vistamaxx, which prevents bacteria and saliva from being absorbed into the guard. Your athlete doesn't have to worry about soaking their guard. All they have to do is give it a wash with regular soap and water after using it, or they can just toss it into the dishwasher.

As a parent, you don't want to take any chances when it comes to your athlete's safety and health. We know that you want to make sure your child is safe while they're practicing martial arts, so we collaborated with some of the biggest experts in sports dentistry and came up with a mouthguard that offers superior comfort and protection.
