The SISU Max NextGen Mouth Guard offers more protection with less mouth guard. The Max NextGen is designed to fit players age 11 and up, including adults, and is ideal for football, hockey, lacrosse, basketball, boxing and other high-impact team sports. SISUs NextGen models feature a wide bite pad, rounded edges for comfort and improved mold-ability to ensure a perfect fit. All SISU guards can be quickly and easily molded (and re-molded) to the individual user at home with hot water. At only 2.4mm thick, or 30% thinner than conventional, bulky mouth guards, players wearing the slim SISU Max NextGen can talk, breathe and hydrate normally with the guard in-place. With SISU guards, superior comfort does not mean sacrificing protection. The SISU Max NextGen is scientifically engineered with Diffusix technology, which uses a non-compressible, perforated material to distribute impact forces over a larger area and reduce risk of dental injury during competition. SISU guards are compatible with braces, but a dental professional should be consulted for proper fitting (adult-Sized guard recommended for all ages wearing braces).
