Shock Doctor Gel Max Power Youth Mouth Guard

Shock Doctor Gel Max Power Youth Mouth Guard is the "Power" take on Shock Doctor's familiar Gel Max, a good pick for the youth player who goes into every corner at full speed. It keeps the gel liner on the inside and the boil-and-bite fit, which lets you mould it at home to sit close to the teeth.

Parents sometimes ask why a child with a full cage needs a mouth guard at all. A cage stops sticks and pucks from reaching the face, but a hit under the chin or a fall onto the ice can still snap the jaw shut. A guard between the teeth is there for exactly those moments.

When you mould it, resist the urge to have your child bite down as hard as possible. A firm, steady bite gives a cleaner shape than chomping, and pressing the soft guard against the teeth with the tongue and lips helps it settle. Let it cool fully before the first try-on, and follow the steps printed on the pack.
