Mouthguards


Sports mouth guards

A mouth guard is essential in contact sports like american football, and useful in basketball and many team sports too. Our Nike mouth guards mould to your teeth for a secure fit and easy breathing. Available with or without a lip guard.

With or without a lip guard?

The lip-guard model (attached to the helmet) protects the lips and teeth on contact, common in american football. The lip-guard-free model, more discreet, suits sports where you talk and breathe a lot, like basketball.

Custom fit

Most mouth guards fit with the “boil-and-bite” method: soften them in hot water, then bite down to mould them to your teeth. A good fit stays in place effortlessly and lets you breathe.
