Boxing mouthguard: choosing it, moulding it, caring for it
In 1890 the London dentist Woolf Krause shaped the first dental protection for his boxing patients, a strip of gutta-percha laid over the incisors. The principle has not changed: a material that softens with heat and takes the imprint of the teeth. This guide gives the exact temperature and immersion time, the four mistakes that ruin a fit, the real difference between single and double, what to do with braces, and the care routine that decides how long it lasts.
