A martial arts mouthguard needs to fit properly to provide optimal protection and comfort. Here are the key elements for a good fit:

1. The mouthguard should grip the teeth firmly without needing to be held in place by the tongue or lips. It should not wobble or feel loose.
   
2. It should distribute pressure evenly across all the teeth to ensure maximum protection and comfort.
   
3. The mouthguard should not obstruct breathing. Adequate airflow is crucial for endurance and performance in the ring.
   
4. You should be able to speak and swallow with the mouthguard in place without it shifting or becoming uncomfortable.
   
5. The mouthguard should not extend too far back into the mouth to avoid triggering a gag reflex and should feel generally comfortable.
   
6. The best solution is a custom-made mouthguard like Dental Armor, which is precisely tailored to your own tooth and jaw shape and crafted by a professional.
   

Martial arts mouthguards are available in several places:

1. Many sports stores carry a selection of mouthguards, especially those specializing in martial arts.
   
2. Websites like Amazon offer quick solutions with a wide range of affordable mouthguards.
   
3. For a fully customized mouthguard, you can visit a dentist. These are more expensive but provide the best fit and protection.
   
4. The ideal solution for anyone looking for a high-quality mouthguard without the high costs and hassle of dentist visits. Dental Armor sends you the impression material; you simply take your own dental impression and send it back. A dental technician then crafts your custom mouthguard and ships it straight to your home.

Choosing the right mouthguard for martial arts depends on several factors:

1. For sparring and competitions, you need a more robust, better-protecting mouthguard than for light, careful training.
   
2. A mouthguard should be comfortable, fit well, and not obstruct breathing. Boil-and-bite models are cheap but don’t provide the same dental protection and comfort as a custom-made martial arts mouthguard from Dental Armor.
   
3. Cheaper models can be less comfortable and wear out faster. Dental Armor uses only premium materials from Germany for its martial arts mouthguards.
   
4. Some martial artists prefer mouthguards with specific designs, colors, or brands. However, it’s crucial that style never takes priority over safety.
   

A mouthguard in martial arts offers several key benefits:

1. It prevents teeth from being damaged or knocked out and protects the jaw from fractures.
   
2. The mouthguard absorbs and distributes the force of blows to the face, reducing the risk of injury in the mouth and jaw area.
   
3. It helps avoid cuts on the lips and inside the mouth that could be caused by the teeth.
   
4. By cushioning impacts, it can indirectly help reduce the transmission of shock waves to the brain, lowering the risk of concussions.
   
5. Since the martial artist doesn’t have to worry as much about oral injuries, they can better concentrate on their opponent.
   

A mouthguard is therefore an essential piece of protective gear in martial arts.
