    Do you know that this mouthpiece will help you if you are falling backward at 700 mph and hit the back of your head this mouthpiece will help you. Not the guys exeact words but essentially.....

    The only time that I ever had trouble with one of those was when I was on an amateut card at The Palace of Auburn Hills. I couldnt find my mouthpiece so we stopped at a store on the way and picked one up. At the Palace they arranged some boiling water and I formed it, cut the strap off of the mouth piece and was ready to roll.

    I hadn't realized that when I cut off the strap on the mouthpiece that I had left a sliver of the rubber on the shield. Every time that I got hit that sliver would gauge into the back of my lips. There was blood everywhere.

    Other than that the boiled ones are extremely effective and approximately 20times cheaper.................Rockin'

    yes but he also said the best.

    and the best is a custom molded mouth guard made specifically for his mouth and teeth mold.

    he can get the job done with a cheaper mouth piece but is it the best? no. it's just cost effective.

    it's just like track stars and running shoes. do they opt for the cheaper ones? nope. So why should a boxer with their mouth protection?

        The best thing that you can do to minimize the impact is by learning good defense.

        I completely agree with the limitations that the extra shield presents while trying to suck air through a slit. Add in a bloody nose and those things will get your jaw cracked as you hang your jaw open sucking for air, the air hole clogged with spit and blood. I hate those things. Single upper properly fitted will do just fine.

        Oh yeah, shock absorbtion. If you get craked with a shot that is going to put you down it does not matter what mouth piece you are wearing...........Rockin'
        Sometimes the youngsters think that this so called new age **** is really an improvement and its not, its just another product to sell athleates. I have never had my teeth knocked out cus I move my ****ing head.

        Saying there is no difference in mouth guards is like saying there is no real difference between Cleto Reyes and Grant gloves. The horse hair is just bullshyt right? Or quality of running shoes don't matter.

        The thin 2-5 dollar boil and bite mouth guards are not the same as a custom molded mouth guard. Those thin boil and bite guards not only hardly protect you, they will cut the ***** out of your gums and the underside of your lips.

        No mouthguard will keep you from being knocked out. However, mouth guards made for your mouth will reduce jaw injuries and absorb some of the force. Or would you rather walk around with TMJ disorder? You have a choice.

        Go talk to your dentist. Ask him/her. They will tell you much different than "it makes no difference".
        The man is endorsing a product he wants to make money on... I am telling you I have tried the new age ****, its BS its all hype if you beleive what they say well thats why they are in business for people like you.
