Dental Mouthguard Update: Review of Type, Design, and Function

John F. Wisniewski, DMD, MS

The purpose of this presentation is to review the design of the various mouthguards that are available on the market today. Discussion of specific aspects for each mouthguard will include type, design, function, method of fabrication, accessibility for purchase and cost. 

Typical reasons for athletes not wearing mouthguards include: (1) “It’s not comfortable or doesn’t fit right.” (2) “I can’t speak to my teammates.” (3) “It’s hard to breathe.” and (4) “I can’t drink with it.” Athletes playing in sports such as basketball, soccer, baseball, skateboarding, skiing, etc., often play their sport without dental protection because of these reasons. However, athletes, who play sports such as football, hockey and lacrosse, are forced to wear mouthguards due to rules and regulations. 

A laboratory custom-made mouthguard claims to allow athletes to speak, breathe and drink with comfort. A review of the results of the evidenced-based clinical studies will be discussed. 

Following this presentation, attendees will be able to 

• Discuss the dynamics and changing characteristics of “today’s mouthguards”.
• Understand the association between custom-made mouthguards and the mitigation of head injuries
• Understand how the compliance of mouthguard usage in sports can be increased.

AFFILIATIONS
Epic lab help--Dave --they wanted to start a study club on lasers w /dr. Losee a few yrs ago. wanted to charge 2500 per yr. Scott is interested in joining AGD.   the money trail seems obvious here. we're a non-profit org. we give our time, but epic doesnt seem like its all altruistic. who gets paid?  where does the money go?  PACE cert can't have confliuct of interests.

       The UT AGD WAS BUILT FROM ASHES BY VOLUNTEERS WHO PAID FROM THEIR OWN POCKETS TO KEEP THE GROUP GOING IN ORDER TO KEEP IT IN THE BLACK.  YEARS AGO, THE GROUP COULDN'T EVEN COVER OUR OWN COSTS.  WE ARE FINANCIALLY SECURE TODAY BECAUSE OF A GREAT DEAL OF SACRIFICE.  THE INTEREST HAS NEVER BEEN TO MAKE A PROFIT, AND MONEY IN OUR ACCOUNTS HAS NOT REPAID PAST SHORTAGES.  WE HAVE WORKED HARD TO KEEP CE COSTS EXTREMELY LOW FOR MEMBERS.  IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN A NON-PROFIT GROUP.  IN PARTNERING WITH OTHER GROUPS, ONE OF THE PREEMINENT CONCERNS IS THAT IT REMAINS FAIR TO MEMBERS.  IN OUR DESIRE TO PAY ALL THE BILLS AND ROUTE MONEY DIRECTLY THRU THE UAGD FOR VARIOUS ACTIVITIES, WE ARE WANTING TO CONTROL THE MONEY TO ENSURE THAT NO ONE IS PROFITING FROM OUR MEMBERS AND THEREBY LOSE THE FINANCIAL TRUST THAT HAS BEEN BUILT THRU THE YEARS.
      EPIC LAB PROPOSED AT THE LAST MASTER TRACK IN NOVEMBER TO HOST A SPECIAL COURSE FOR THE HANDS ON PORTION OF THE ESTHETIC ASSIGNMENT.  THEY PROPOSED OUT OF HAND THAT THE COURSE FEE BE $2500 OF SO.  THIS IS FINE.  HOWEVER, WHEN A COURSE IS SPONSORED BY THE AGD, WE WANT TO ENSURE THAT THE COURSE FEE DOESN'T JUST LAND IN THE POCKET OF SOMEBODY.  IN OTHER WORDS, THAT THE FEE IS REASONABLE TO COVER THE COSTS OF THE COURSE.  THE UAGD WANTS TO RETAIN CONTROL OF THE MONEY TRAIL.  A COURSE CAN BE OFFERED BY ANY GROUP FOR PROFIT, BUT ANYTHING AFFILIATED WITH THE UAGD SHOULD HONOR THIS UNSTATED COMMITTMENT TO OUR MEMBERS.
