Abstract

In summary the advantages of providing custom-fitted mouthguards for athletes, especially those involved in contact sports, has been discussed along with the methodology of construction. Because of the apparent lack of negative effects on physical performance and the superior protective characteristics of custom-fitted mouthguards, it seems logical to recommend their use in the competitive sports arena.
