A mouthguard is a mouthpiece that protects the teeth and gums by covering them and preventing and reducing injury to the teeth, arches, lips, and gums. A good mouthguard is like a crash helmet for both teeth and jaws. It also keeps the jaws from fully closing, lowering the risk of jaw joint injuries and concussions.
A mouthguard is commonly used to prevent injury in contact sports, as a treatment for bruxism or TMD, or as part of dental procedures like tooth bleaching or sleep apnea treatment.
It’s also known as a mouth guard, mouth piece, gumshield, gum guard, nightguard, occlusal splint, bite splint, or bite plane, depending on the application. Mouthguards are made by dentists that specialize in sports dentistry.

I can wear it easily during sparring and even talk to my students to provide some coaching. Although speech isn’t flawless, it is far superior to that of most mouth guards. I only changed it out because I was sick and worried that having the same mouth guard in my mouth over and over would make me sick again once I recovered. The fitting was simple, but it is unlike most other mouth guards, so be sure to read the instructions carefully.
