BRACES Lava Black

Fantastic product. Our son is in tackle football this year and the other mouthguards we looked into were so bulky with his braces. We ordered Bulletproof to give it a whirl and were pleasantly surprised with the lightweight thin design. Molding it was fairly quick and easy, even when it got a ripple it was as easy as re-warming and fitting again in a few minutes. In addition, when I reached out to the company with a question, the customer service rep was incredibly helpful. The company really did care about their product! I was very impressed. Would absolutely buy again!

We tried 5 different mouth guards (literally!) before my daughter finally agreed to wearing this one. She likes it because it’s thin and fits comfortably. She can talk clearly and drink water with it in. I love that she is protected when playing sports and that it is remoldable. Video for fit is clear and easy to follow. I wish it came with a case but other than that I highly recommend this product.

This sucked. It is IMPOSSIBLE to mold. We tried for over an hour and could not get it to fit. Once we had it somewhat acceptable, removed the braces guard to do the final fitting and it will not form to his teeth and stay there. Just flops around in his mouth. We bought this specifically because it is safe for braces and my son is a soccer goalie so he needs to be able to communicate with his team. We’re gonna end up with a bulky mouthpiece he can’t talk with because this one is not working. Also thought we’d get top and bottom pieces for the price but only get one. It’s crap.

First off, I love that this is made by a US manufacturer who honors their warranty..This product is made of very strong and firm material, allowing it to be thinner than most mouth guards. This allows for a more comfortable fit and more airflow while working hard.I also love that they are packaged flat, reducing package waste in our landfills (nice touch).Due to the material used, the habit of chewing on the guard is not an issue anymore. This is a huge benefit for so many reasons.The fitting process is just as easy, if not easier than other molded guards. They even have a video that walks you through every step as you do the fitting.With all this said, this product is such a great value. We won’t be wearing these out anytime soon.

The customer service was great. Company website was helpful for fitting. It’s a thin fit. Unfortunately for my son with braces, this was not the best fit. We will try this brand again without braces.

Pros: It is by far the thinnest mouth guard I have ever seen; my son says they are easy to talk with while it's in. And it was easy to fit over his braces.Cons: It isn't like other mouth guards that have soft rubber to bite down on when you get smashed in the head. It is a hard plastic that doesn't seem like it would offer great cushion if you smacked your teeth together hard.

My daughter recently got braces, and she loves playing soccer! There was no way I was going to let her out on the field without protecting that vacation home of an investment in her mouth! This is the only mouthguard she would wear without throwing a tantrum. It allows her to breathe and communicate on the field. The comfort is great for her and it is thin and stays in place. The nice part is that if you mess up on the initial molding process, you can just put it back in the hot water and reform it again. It took me a couple of times to remold it, mainly because I did not follow the precise, incredible directions that were provided. I am a dad? What do you expect?

We usually buy a very specific brand of mouth guard which my daughter’s coach recommends, but my daughter has braces and needed a new mouth guard quickly to accommodate that. This fit the bill, the price was good, the quality seems similarly good to our usual brand, it was very easy to mold, it’s as durable as we hoped, the size was perfect, and I had great piece of mind knowing her teeth (& the cost of her braces) were protected and safe as she did take a couple of hits that worried me a bit. The mouth guard definitely did its job well! This is now the brand I will switch to during the braces years. My daughter might even like to stick with this brand after having the braces removed…we’ll see! Great product overall.
