Fitting a gum shield
Boil and bite,
Boil and bite,
step by step.
Most self-fit gum shields are shaped at home in hot water. Always follow the instructions that come with yours, as times vary.
- Read the instructions, every brand is a little different
- Soften in hot water, for the time the maker gives
- Bite and press, mould it to the teeth and gums
- Cool it, in cold water to set the shape
- Check the fit, it should stay in without biting
- Store it in a case, rinse it after every use

Questions
we get asked.
What is the difference between a gum shield and a mouthguard?
They are the same thing. Gum shield is the name most people use in the UK, and mouthguard is used more widely.
How do I fit a boil and bite gum shield?
Soften it in hot water, bite gently to mould it to the teeth, then cool it in cold water to set the shape. Always follow the instructions with your gum shield, and see our guide to boil and bite gum shields on the blog.
Does my child need a junior gum shield?
Yes. A junior gum shield is smaller and fits a child's mouth better. Many of our OPRO and Game Guard gum shields come in junior and adult sizes.
Can I wear a gum shield with braces?
Yes, with one made for braces. We stock the OPRO Gold Braces, OPRO Snap-Fit Braces and Shock Doctor Brace gum shields.
Do you sell gum shields for schools and clubs?
Yes. Game Guard gum shields come in dispensers of 10 in different colours, which suit schools and clubs.
