Safety tips
Hockey should be fun. Play safely. Always wear your mouthguard, shin guards and a glove. Use hockey shoes with protective reinforcement and soles designed for your playing surface during matches and training.
Protecting your teeth
A mouthguard is a piece of personal protection equipment. It should meet current regulations, including the PPE regulation (EU) 2016/425. For example, the French standard XP S72-427 requires:
- Specific protective thicknesses to prevent perforation.
- An integrated ventilation space so users can breathe even with the jaw clenched.
- The upper and lower teeth fit together to lock the jaw more effectively (protection against breaks).
Protecting your teeth (cont.)
- Coverage of the gums to prevent teeth loosening.
The mouthguard should stay in place when you open your mouth.
Replace your mouthguard according to the manufacturer's indications or as soon as it begins to show signs of wear.
Refer to the product's user guide with regard to the manufacturer's liability.
Design
2 materials: SEBS (harder white part) and EVA (translucent part).
Design (cont.)
EVA ensures the product is easy to mold and fits well. Heat molding helps the top and bottom teeth fit together properly so the jaw can be clenched in the event of a vertical impact. It is suitable for children with both adult and baby teeth. Supplied with a holder for use during heat molding.
