OPRO was founded 20 years ago, in the UK by Anthony Lovat, a former dentist. The company was born out of Anthony's belief that all children should have the best possible protection during sport for their teeth and gums. His idea was that this could happen through easy access to well-made, Custom-Fit mouthguards obtained via a dentist impression visit, from a member of the OPRO dental team, to their school or sports club. OPRO now supplies more than 1,000 schools and clubs all around the world and expanded to adults. The brand recently signed a major partnership with the UFC and their mouthguards are everywhere.lubs all around the world and expanded to adults.
