Haus Fit™ Custom Sports Guard | Kingston Tournament Scan

At Guard Haus, we always recommend a custom sports guard for optimal protection, fit, and performance.

Custom guards are designed specifically to your anatomy, providing a secure fit that allows for better breathing, communication, and consistent impact protection during play.

At-home heat molded (boil-and-bite) guards can be a temporary option, but they often result in bulky fit, uneven thickness, and reduced long-term durability.

When is a custom guard not ideal?

A heat-molded or flexible option may be more appropriate if:

• The athlete is under the age of 12 and still has active tooth development (baby teeth present)
• The athlete has active orthodontic appliances, such as:Braces,Aligner attachments, Herbst or other functional appliances

In these cases, a guard may need to accommodate ongoing tooth movement or hardware changes.

Our Recommendation:

If there are no active changes occurring in the mouth, a custom, non-active appliance is always the best choice to ensure:

• Maximum protection
• Consistent fit
• Long-term durability

With proper care, a custom sports guard can last multiple seasons while maintaining its fit and protective performance.

To extend the life of your guard, we recommend:

• Avoiding chewing or biting on the guard
• Cleaning regularly (without over-scrubbing or harsh chemicals)
• Storing in a protective case
• Keeping away from extreme heat, cold, and pets

When Should It Be Replaced?

Your guard should be replaced immediately if you notice:

• Cracks or structural damage
• Changes in fit or looseness
• Significant wear from use or chewing
• Any dental changes (new dental work, shifting, orthodontics)

Once digitally scanned, your Haus Fit guard is custom designed and professionally fabricated using premium German-made EVA performance material. Manufactured under internationally recognized quality standards, this advanced material delivers a precise fit, exceptional durability and superior protection.

Guard Haus proudly uses Erkoflex®, one of the industry's leading materials for custom sports guards, including advanced PlaySafe® laminate technology.

How We Compare

Side Hustle Providers
Dental assistants, hygienists or sports guard providers typically charge $55-$90 for team-based guards. While many offer custom guards, they often rely on traditional impressions rather than advanced digital scanning and lab fabrication. This can result in a bulkier fit, reduced accuracy and inconsistent protection.

Dental Clinics
Many dental clinics offer custom sports guards using either digital scanning or traditional impressions. Prices typically range from $350-$500, with insurance coverage sometimes available depending on your plan.

Online Custom Guards
Most online companies mail an at-home impression kit that you complete and return for fabrication. While marketed as custom, they rely on self-taken impressions, traditional materials and shipping, with prices typically ranging from $199-$395.

Guard Haus™
Guard Haus combines digital scanning, premium German Thermoflex™ material and professional custom fabrication starting at just $174. There are no messy impressions, custom colour options are available, and once scanned can save up to 10% off future guards as scan will be on file!
