Abstract: A guard for teeth having braces having lateral connectors therebetween comprises: an upper shield having an exterior wall adapted to encircle a person's teeth in their upper jaw; and, a lower shield having an exterior wall adapted to encircle a person's teeth in their lower jaw, said said shields extending downwardly generally the length of the teeth, and then across the biting surface of the teeth, and then partially along an inward length of the teeth. The shields have spaced hooks for positioning which are adapted to extend inwardly to the teeth and along an inward side portion of the lateral connectors between the braces. The hooks are adapted to extend from a top portion of the upper shield over and behind the connectors so that the shield will stay positioned on the teeth when a user opens their mouth and from a bottom portion of the lower sheild under and behind the connectors.
