What thickness for hockey?

Light 2mm with a full cage; Standard 3mm with a visor or open face.

Are mouthguards required in hockey?

Most youth and amateur leagues require them.

Can I talk and breathe with it in?

Yes — excess material is cut away, so communication is clear.

Can I use it with braces?

Yes — via a dentist digital scan (putty impression kits can stick to and damage brackets; re-scan every 4-6 months as teeth move). After braces, one scan covers custom products for life — see our Braces page.

Do NHL players wear custom-fit mouthguards?

Yes — TRUFIT is worn by many players across the NHL. We proudly serve most NHL teams. Custom-fit guards stay in place all game long.

What's the difference between a custom-fit mouthguard and a boil-and-bite?

Boil-and-bite guards shift during play and block airflow. A TRUFIT guard is made from your exact impression — it fits precisely, stays put, and is trimmed so it never blocks your airway.

How does the at-home impression process work?

We ship you an impression kit, you mold it at home and mail it back, and your custom guard is delivered to your door — no dentist visit required.

Do TRUFIT sports mouthguards prevent concussions?

No appliance can prevent concussions, but research shows that sports mouthguards may reduce severity and the occurrence of concussions.

How long does a custom hockey mouthguard last?

Most players get 1–2 seasons per guard with no chewing and proper care and maintenance. Your impression stays on file so reorders are fast.

Built to Stay Put Through Every Shift

Hockey punishes loose mouthguards — cross-checks, deflected pucks, and board battles, all while you're breathing hard through a 45-second shift. A custom-fit hockey mouthguard grips every tooth so it stays seated without clenching.

Precision cuts mean you can call for the puck, chirp, and drink at the bench without popping it out. It's the same custom-fit technology endorsed by PHATS (Professional Hockey Athletic Trainers Society).
