Mouthgard- Is this normal?

[:::PSL:::]

They all should be costumized fit.

Most fighters cant afford a custom fit,you boil a brainpad,suck it up,and slam it in to your mouth,suck hard,you have your custom fit.That way you have a double mouth piece,with a breathing channel no less

I had a brainpad and hated it. Couldnt breathe. Finally tossed it. To each his own though.

and to the guy who posted this original question, it's not about keeping your teeth in place. They'll be fine. ..you're not getting hit with a bare fist. It's about securing a tight fit between your upper and lower chompers so you dont get a concussion.

Agreed. I have a brainpad and I love it. Just shop around and try a few out and see what works best for you. Like everything else, we're all different, including our mouths.

i just use a $3 single, but i look for ones that feel sturdy.

about brinapads, i have a small jaw so maybe that is a factor. infact, i can almost use a kids mouthguard.

Very well could be it,if it doesnt fit right the breathing channel isnt going to do you a whole lot of good

So how did you fare out?

Seems like the thinner it is, the less protection it would offer. But I don't know shit about mouth guards.

Cheers for the input everyone. A poster suggested that I should keep my shock doctor. Unfortunately, it was too bulky and uncomfortable that I couldnt keep my gob shut when I used it. A real recipe for a broken jaw!

I found a website in Japan that does custom gumshields and they look spot on. But, the cheeky bastards charge double if you order from the English side of their website. SO I will get my ex lass to write the online application in japanese for me. Then I can compare my dentists gumshield with another custom one.
