Football mouthguard guide
What makes a great football mouthguard
Football mouthguards take more abuse than any other piece of gear. Players chew them, flip them and lose them under the pile. Here is what actually protects you, and why so many pros switch to a custom-fit TRUFIT.
Every snap ends in contact. Your mouthguard is what stands between a helmet-to-helmet hit and a chipped tooth, a cut lip or a jaw that slams shut. A TRUFIT guard cups every tooth and spreads the impact across the whole arch. Because your face mask covers the front of your face, most players choose our Thin 2mm guard for protection with no extra bulk. Linemen and players who want more cushioning can step up to Standard 3mm.
Boil-and-bite guards are thick and loose, so they muffle every audible and fall out when you are breathing hard. A TRUFIT guard is made from an impression of your teeth and trimmed slim, so you can call plays, breathe through a two-minute drill and keep it in between snaps. Pick your team colors and add your number. Playing flag football? Same guard, no face mask needed.
TRUFIT is endorsed by PFATS, the Professional Football Athletic Trainers Society, and is a Proud Partner of the Los Angeles Rams. We proudly serve 20 NFL teams, including the Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers, and college programs like Auburn, Clemson and Georgia.
FAQ
Football mouthguard questions
What thickness should I get for football?
Thin 2mm for most players. Some players prefer Standard 3mm for extra cushioning.
Are mouthguards required in football?
Yes, in almost every youth, high school, college and amateur league. Many leagues also ask for a visible color rather than clear or white, so pick a color.
Do NFL players wear custom-fit mouthguards?
Yes. Many NFL players wear TRUFIT, and we proudly serve 20 NFL teams.
Can I wear it with braces?
Impression kits are not suitable for braces: you will get stuck. Ask your dentist or orthodontist for a digital scan and send it to us instead. Re-scan every 4 to 6 months while your teeth are moving. See our Braces page.
How long does it take, and how long does it last?
About 2 to 4 weeks from order to delivery. Most players get 1 to 2 seasons from a guard with good care, and your impression stays on file, so reorders arrive in about 7 to 10 business days.

My son uses for Lacrosse and likes the fact that this guard fits like a retainer and he can communicate clearly on defense. He plans on using his 2nd one for football.

“I bought one for my son during football season and he liked it so much I had to get one for my night hockey league. Wild how they make the fit so perfect, nothing like the plastic we use to wear. “
