SPORTSAFE AUSTRALIA CARE INSTRUCTIONS

We thank you for purchasing a Sportsafe Australia custom made mouthguard, in order to get the best from your custom mouthguard we suggest the following:

• Your custom made mouthguard has been manufactured for the sole use of you.
• Only wash in lukewarm soapy water, after each use.
• Do not place custom made mouthguard in boiling water. They are not the ones you purchase from the chemist.
• Mouthguards should be worn at training to prevent injuries.
• When mouthguard is not in use, keep it in the hygienic mouthguard box supplied.
• Do not store the mouthguard box in direct sunlight and do not subject your mouthguard to extremities of temperature.
• Only an experienced member of our Sportsafe Australia team member should undertake any adjustments to your custom made mouthguard.
• If your dental anatomy undergoes major changes i.e., with crown or bridge, or major orthodontic treatment, then a new mouthguard will be required.
• Mouthguards should be checked regularly throughout the season for tears, distortion or bite-though. Frequency of replacement will depend on the use and quality of care.
• If your mouthguard absorbs a blow, it should be replaced immediately. Sportsafe Australia is not responsable if a severe blow has caused a tooth to be knocked out.
• In the event that an adult (permanent) tooth is knocked out, place the tooth in cold milk (whole milk works best), in the mouth between cheek and teeth or in water (with a pinch of salt if available). Keep tooth moist at all times.
• See your dentist as soon as possible, within 30 minutes, for best chances of tooth survival and successful replacement.All instances of tooth injury require an immediate visit to your dentist.
