MoGo Mouthguards utilize a patent pending process that embeds the mouthguard material with natural flavor essences, without sugar, for flavor that will last an entire season, according the MoGo. MoGo can be used by athletes at all levels, from the professional ranks to the youngest youth leagues.
MoGo offers a range of flavored mouthguards that offer protection, comfort and performance. The American company makes all its MoGo mouthguards in the U.S.A using PolyFlav resins, which retain flavor for a year, meet FDA standards for food contact and are BPA Free. PolyFlav flavorants and flavor enhancing agents are approved for food products.
