Mouthpiece  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

The mouthguard is mainly worn by hockey players and boxers in the sporting field. Since these are very endangered by their sports in the head area, they wear a mouthguard directly in the mouth. This is made of plastic and is placed over the upper rows of teeth. The row of teeth is surrounded by the mouthguard and thus protects against injuries. The best protection is provided by special custom-made products for the athletes themselves, but these are very expensive. For this reason, cheaper models are usually bought, but they do not offer the athlete sufficient protection. The mouthguard is also used in medicine. It is made of elastic textile and has several layers. The side ends are also fitted with holders made of elastic material, such as rubber, which can be attached to the ears to hold them in place. During operations and many treatments, the mouthguard is worn in front of the mouth to prevent germs from entering the patient's wound through droplets of secretion from the mouth, with breathing, and thus causing further infections. In clean rooms it is sometimes also worn, as it is feared that germs could get onto surfaces to be kept clean by breathing through secretion droplets.
