Mouth Guard Fitting

This academic year your child will be taking part in rugby and hockey and following national governing body and school guidelines, it is compulsory that your child wears a mouthguard during these sports.

Therefore, in the interest of your child’s safety, we have invited OPRO, who specialise in the provision of custom made mouthguards, to visit the school on:

Thursday 8 September from 12.30pm – 3.45pm

On that day the OPRO dental team will take impressions of all pupils who want to be fitted and the finished mouthguards will then be delivered back to your home address approximately 7 working days later.

OPRO offer a number of benefits with their service:

  • Prices start from £39.99
  • Our exclusive school design mouthguards are priced at £44.99 and can be found at the following link here
  • Buy one mouthguard and get a second mouthguard for half price
  • Your child will receive a complimentary Snap-Fit mouthguard at the dental visit so they have something to use whilst they wait for their Custom mouthguard to be delivered
  • Each mouthguard comes with a dental warranty which covers up to £22,500
  • Your child’s name and the school name will be included on the mouthguard and case
  • OPRO store all of the models in case a replacement is required
  • All mouthguards carry the CE mark

If you would like to take advantage of this opportunity and have your child fitted, please place an order with OPRO on their website www.opro.com.

If you have any questions about the products or OPRO’s service please contact their customer care team directly on 01442 430690 or email info@oprogroup.com.

Once all the bookings have been confirmed we will inform you or the time slot that your child will be having their fitting.

Pupils do not need a custom made mouth guard to participate in sport.  They can use mouthguards that can be purchased from the school shop or any sports shop
