Gear: Mouthguards. What type do you use? Upper and Lower, custom, boil & bite?

I have the Opro fitted mouthguard, they're great and I don't consider them as being crazy expensive - I got the "Pro Impact" or something, the most expensive one recommended for contact sports and I think it was about £43, used the franking machine at work but it's probably a few quid extra for postage otherwise.

Hasn't come out of my mouth once and I've sparred with it for 1-2 times a week for about 2 months now, even when I get tired and my mouth is open - and I get hit a **** ton.

This probably reads like a sponsored endorsement but I imagine any fitted mouthguard (from the dentist or whatever) is the same. Worthwhile in my book.

 

Got my dentist to do mine.

 

Custom Shock Doctor. Nothing better. They're considerably more expensive but you don't want to be cheap with safety equipment.:good

 

Full boil and bite vented. Just like you.

If you train all your cardio with it, it is second nature.

 

never had any problems with my cheap, poorly fitting boil and bite. none. ever. but only did sparring...

 

I'll repeat what I've already posted...Custom Shock Doctor is the best mouthguard on the market. I have extensive experience with the product and it is phenomenal. It has saved me from more concussions than I'd care to remember. If you have the funds check it out you won't regret it, Slacker.

 

The black and white colour shock doc I found to be good and reliable, but ill try the custom now as you lot say its good.

 

how can a mouthguard save you from concussions?

 

150$????
Surely an actual dentist can do one for cheaper?
Can't put a price on something like that though.

 

+1 on this!

very cheap, but very good in my opinion, have had a custom one from a dentist before but can honestly say i prefer by shock doc one

 

shock absorber. Put even a cheap double mouthpiece in your mouth and hit yourself a little with your glove and you'll tell a difference.

 

I don't get why anyone has those boil and bite pieces of ****.

a) They feel ****ing hangin' in your mouth
b) You can't breathe the same as a custom one
b) It costs a bomb for the dentist to re-do your teeth so it's worth the extra coin to get a custom fitted one.
