There is no such gaurd that exist, though they advertise that it doesnt help if you get hit clean.
Shock Doctor, I think is one of them but again as time goes on you will find that a gaurd is a gaurd.
The only thing I care about is getting air, which is why I do not any longer use the upper/lower gaurd, I just use the upper it locks in nice, and I can breathe.
But do not think just becuase the packaging claims it will reduce impact that it really will, cus that **** is a ****ing lie

Not true. The best mouth guards are the ones made specifically for your mouth shape and structure. Using a mould of your mouth to create said mouthguard.

Also different materials have different effects. Go search d3o in youtube and see the proof. Will it reduce chances of being knocked out? Sure. If more kinetic energy is absorbed and dumped before entering your brain case, then obviously it will help.
Will it keep you from being knocked out ever? Nope.
Will it protect your teeth? Obvi.

Are the cheap? No. That is just the price you pay for high quality goods. Look at Winnings gloves for example.

co-sign that.......

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'

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".

Anyone had their mouthgaurd done at the Dentist? Was thinking about getting one properly done there, but is it worth it??

This expert is trying to sell you something.

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'

Rockin' is right, Flicker is wrong.

I use a cheap ass rubber mouthguard but I don't rely on it. I rely on my defense and movement. Mouthguard is a last resort.

In the old bareknuckle days, they used to use lemon/orange wedges to bite down on.

Ha!
