Shock Doctor Gel Max Mouthguard

You submerge the mouthguard in boiling water for a specific duration, let it cool slightly, and then bite down firmly to create a custom impression of your teeth. This ensures the gel liner molds precisely to your mouth shape for a secure, comfortable fit.

The flavor is embedded directly into the material, so it is designed to last throughout the life of the mouthguard. While the intensity may fade slightly over time with heavy use, the refreshing sensation remains consistent.

This specific model is not designed for use with braces. If you have orthodontic work, you should look for a mouthguard specifically labeled as 'braces-compatible' to avoid damaging your hardware or getting the guard stuck.

Yes, the tether strap is optional. You can easily attach it if you prefer the security of connecting the guard to your helmet, or remove it entirely if you prefer a strapless, low-profile fit.

The integrated breath channel is designed to keep the airway open, which helps with oxygen intake and makes it significantly easier to communicate with teammates compared to standard, solid-front mouthguards.

While it is optimized for high-impact sports like football and lacrosse, the Gel Max provides the protection level needed for any contact sport where dental safety is a priority, such as basketball or rugby.
