Dublin, Feb. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "US Sports Mouthguard Market, By Region, Competition, Forecast and Opportunities, 2020-2030F" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The US Sports Mouthguard Market was valued at USD 1.02 Billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 1.64 Billion by 2030, rising at a CAGR of 5.89%
The Sports Mouthguard market is driven by various factors such as the rising demand for protection, comfort, and fit. Protection is crucial for preventing dental injuries, concussions, and jaw damage. Comfort and fit are essential to ensure athletes can wear the mouthguard without discomfort, often achieved through custom or boil-and-bite options.
Material durability ensures the mouthguard withstands repeated use without degrading. Breathability and speech clarity are important for performance, especially during intense activity. This type of sport influences the required level of protection, with contact sports requiring stronger guards. Age, size, and whether the athlete has braces also affect mouthguard selection. Cost varies with customization and features. Technological innovations, such as smart sensors or antimicrobial coatings, further enhance mouthguard effectiveness, while adherence to safety standards ensures compliance.
The growing participation in various sports activities is a significant driving factor for the increased demand for sports mouthguards. As more athletes engage in contact sports like football, hockey, boxing, and lacrosse, the need for effective oral protection rises. As a part of this, as of 2023, according to the Sports & Fitness Industry Association and Sports Marketing Surveys USA, a record 242 million people in the United States played a sport or participated in a fitness activity, driven by basketball's continued popularity and pickleball's sustained double-digit growth. Also, the rising popularity of combat sports and recreational activities like MMA and skateboarding contributes to this growth.
Rising Demand for Eco-Friendly Materials
The rising demand for eco-friendly materials is a significant trend in the U.S. sports mouthguard market. As a part of this, according to a recent study, as of April 2024, when selecting between two similar products priced at USD 10 or less, 71% of buyers would choose the one that uses sustainable principles. As sustainability becomes a key concern across industries, athletes and manufacturers are increasingly seeking environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional plastic and synthetic materials used in mouthguards. This trend is driven by growing awareness of environmental impact and a push towards reducing plastic waste. As the eco-friendly movement continues to influence consumer behaviour, the demand for sustainable sports mouthguards is expected to grow.
Increasing Awareness of Safety
Increasing awareness of safety is a key trend driving the U.S. sports mouthguard market. As knowledge about the risks of dental injuries, concussions, and other oral trauma grows, athletes, parents, and coaches are prioritizing protective gear like mouthguards across a wider range of sports. This heightened awareness is especially prominent in youth sports, where organizations are mandating mouthguard use in contact sports such as football, hockey, and lacrosse, as well as non-contact sports like basketball and soccer. This has encouraged more athletes to adopt mouthguards as part of their essential safety equipment.
Rising Demand for Customization & Personalized Fit
The rising demand for customization and personalized fit is a prominent trend in the U.S. sports mouthguard market. Athletes are increasingly seeking mouthguards that offer superior comfort, protection, and performance, which custom-fit products can provide. Unlike generic, one-size-fits-all options, custom mouthguards are designed based on an athlete's unique dental impressions or digital scans, ensuring a snug, secure fit that enhances comfort and safety during high-intensity sports.
Segmental Insights
Distribution Channel Insights
Offline dominated the US Sports Mouthguard market primarily due to the convenience of in-store purchases. Sports equipment stores, and dental offices remain the primary distribution channels for consumers seeking mouthguards. In-person shopping allows athletes to try on products for fit and comfort, ensuring the right choice for their needs. Also, offline retailers often provide expert advice on selecting the appropriate mouthguard based on sport type and individual preferences. As a result, offline retail remains a significant driver in the overall U.S. sports mouthguard market.
Regional Insights
West dominated the US Sports Mouthguard market, driven by factors such as high sports participation, strong athletic culture, and a focus on safety. States like California, Oregon, and Washington have large populations of athletes across various sports, including football, soccer, basketball, and hockey, which contribute to high demand for mouthguards. Also, the region's health-conscious culture and emphasis on injury prevention have further driven the market for protective gear like mouthguards.
