Optional or Mandatory - The importance of a Mouth Guard in Karate
Wearing a mouth guard is an essential part of participating in karate safely. A mouth guard protects your teeth and mouth from injury while sparring or performing certain movements. It also helps to protect your opponent by reducing how hard you are able to strike with each blow. Generally speaking, most karate dojos do require their members to wear a mouth guard while training or sparring due to the potential risks associated with not wearing one. It can save students from severe trauma to the mouth, jaw, and teeth while ensuring everyone is able to enjoy a safe training experience.

Keeping Your Mouth Guard Clean
It's absolutely imperative that you look after your mouth guard, and not to treat it as an afterthought. Your MMA gum shield will last much, much longer if you follow these care tips. Thoroughly clean your mouth guard after every use, making sure to brush out debris and bacteria with a toothbrush or specialised rinse. Simply running water over it won't effectively sanitise your mouth guard. In addition to maintaining your mouth guard from a hygiene perspective, it’s vital that you can also recognise the signs of wear and tear, so you know when it’s time to throw out and replace your used mouth guard.
