It’s important to know to care for and clean that important piece of sporting gear.  Here’s a few of the Australian Dental Association’s recommendations:

  • Always wear your mouthguard, at training, at practice and during the competition.
  • Rinse your mouthguard before and after use.
  • Wash your mouthguard with a soft brush, soap and water only in cold or lukewarm water.
  • Store your mouthguard in a clean, rigid and well ventilated plastic container.
