Enhancing sports mouthguards with PLA + and PC: stress reduction, energy absorption, and topology optimization.
Clin Oral Investig
October 2024
Department of Oral Health Sciences, PGIMER, Sangrur, Punjab, India.
Objectives: The objective of this paper was to compare the effectiveness of different materials for mouthguards in preventing oral and maxillofacial injuries during sports activities. The present study compares the stress-reduction and energy absorption capabilities of two other fused filament materials - poly(lactic-acid plus) (PLA+) and polycarbonate (PC), with Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), which is the most commonly used material for mouthguard fabrication.
Materials And Methods: Two human skulls were modelled, and a boxing glove simulated punches along the x, y, and z-axes with 5 mm displacement with 1 kN force.

Introduction: Elastic cushioning materials protect human tissue from injury by absorbing impact energy and delaying its transfer. However, the potential compromise in force delivery to the hitting target remains unknown.
Methods: To examine if silicone cushioning compromises punch force delivery to a hitting target, a double-blind crossover trial with 12 elite boxers was conducted following material tests.
