Abstract

Conventional mouthguard fabrication process which consists of elastomeric impression taking and followed gypsum model making is changing into intraoral scanning and dental model printing with 3D printer. In addition, new 3D printing materials for mouthgurad, 3D Computer-Aided Design(CAD) software for dental appliance, evaluation of a virtual dentoalveolar model for testing virtually 3D designed mouthguard, and lightweight sensor technology will lead dental professionals to the new era of Sports Dentistry, including information technology integrated custom mouthguard fabrication and creating value with analytic data acquired from sensors in mouthguard.
