Can a mouthguard fit over braces?
Yes. Special attention must be taken when dealing with orthodontic braces. It is important to be aware of the orthodontic treatment plan especially if teeth are being removed or moved dramatically. If braces are worn on both the top and bottom, you may want to consider a dual arch protector. These mouthguards can be difficult to breath and talk with! Custom-made mouthguards do provide protection to the more susceptible upper teeth and they will reduce the trauma associated with jaw fractures and concussions.
