MMA Mouthguards

When MMA blew on the scene in the early 90’s there was very little protection required and very little thought was put into the fight gear of a fighter. Since then we have seen advances in nearly every aspect including mouth guards. My job as a manufacturer of mouth guards is to design a mouth guard specifically for MMA. MMA mouth guards and boxing mouth guards are designed specifically to distribute the blow through out the mouth instead of just at the point of impact. We take care in only building up the facial (outside) of the guard so that the MMA mouth guard isn’t thick on the inside, which causes most individuals to gag. Many manufacturers are just adding 2 3mm pieces of material to build up the guard. This is a very quick but inefficient way of manufacturing guards for sports such as MMA and boxing. A huge benefit to the MMA mouth guard is that Python mouth guards extend as far up as possible to protect the roots of the tooth. Like traditional boil and bite mouth guards many manufacturers are just going up slightly above the teeth which doesn’t do anything to keep the teeth in place when someone takes a shot to the face. Python mouth guards are not designed just for pro athletes at the top of their game, everyone can benefit whether you’re just getting into the sport, sparring or an amateur. The most ridiculous statement I hear from a fighter is, “I can’t afford a custom mouth guard”. The dental industry makes a ton of money on replacing teeth every year but many times you can’t just replace one tooth because it requires a 2 or 3 unit bridge, which destroys a tooth on either side. The standard cost of a 3-unit bridge is about $1200.00; the price of a Python mouth guard is around $95.00 so you do the math. It’s my job to manufacture the best and most functional mouth guard in the industry and I pride myself on the fact that we understand what our customers need and what they expect out of a mouth guard.
