Suitable for

  • Boxing
  • MMA

    Shock Doctor lists this dual-arch (upper and lower) boil-and-bite guard in its MMA/Martial Arts mouthguards collection. Shock Doctor states it is not compatible with braces, so it is not for anyone who wears them. Before a bout, check your event's mouthguard rules: IMMAF's amateur rules and the ABC's professional rules both require one.

  • Kickboxing
    • Sparring

    For kickboxing sparring. Shock Doctor lists this double-arch (upper-and-lower) boil-and-bite guard in its MMA/Martial Arts mouthguards collection. WAKO requires a mouthguard in every fighting discipline and age category, and allows upper-and-lower guards (WAKO Rules 2022, Art. 2.3.1.3). Shock Doctor states it is not compatible with braces, so it is not for anyone who wears braces. WAKO also requires a soft, pliable rubber-plastic or silicone guard (Art. 2.3.1.3). Shock Doctor doesn't state this guard's material, so check it with your event before a bout.

  • Karate

    For karate: a double-arch (upper-and-lower) boil-and-bite guard, per Shock Doctor. In WKF kumite (competition sparring), a gum shield is compulsory (WKF Kumite Competition Rules 2026, Art. 2.2.7(b)). The rule lists it without the approval requirement it gives mitts, pads and protectors, and WKF's approved list has no gum shield category. But WKF's rules also say all protective equipment must be approved by WKF (Art. 2.2.10), so ask the event organiser what it accepts. Shock Doctor states it is not compatible with braces, so it is not for anyone who wears braces.

  • Kung Fu (Sanda)
    • Competition

    For Sanda bouts. Shock Doctor describes a boil-and-bite guard that covers the upper and lower teeth. A gum shield is compulsory in BCCMA Light Sanda (Light Sanda rules 2024, Rule 11). In IWUF Sanda, competitors provide their own gum guard (IWUF Sanda rules 2024, Art. 7.3). Shock Doctor states it is not compatible with braces, so it is not for anyone who wears braces.

Research-based editorial assessment

Our verdict

A dual-arch boil-and-bite mouthguard from Shock Doctor that covers the upper and lower teeth. Shock Doctor says it is not compatible with braces.

Shock Doctor's own (US-facing) product page describes dual-arch coverage from a "double monocoque shock frame" and a standard boil-and-bite fitting process. The same page states plainly that this exact model "is not compatible with braces", and points customers to a separate braces range instead. Our UK purchase link goes to the specialist retailer Minotaur Fight Store.

Why we rated it this way

Protection (3): Shock Doctor describes double-arch coverage from a named shock-frame construction: the normal level for a double-arch boil-and-bite guard. It doesn't name the material.

Comfort (3): no specific comfort claim beyond a standard boil-and-bite fit was found.

Materials & Construction (Not rated): No material is confirmed for this double-arch guard, so the build can't be rated.

Value (3): A premium price for a double-arch boil-and-bite mouthguard with what Shock Doctor calls a double monocoque shock frame, which is what mouthguards at this price normally offer.
