摘要
There is a growing need for a mouthguard sheet material with higher shock absorption and dispersion capacity than those obtained by conventional materials. A five-layer mouthguard sheet material was previously developed using laminated ethylene vinyl acetate and polyolefin copolymer resin. In this study, the shock absorption capacity and dispersion capability of the new sheet material were investigated and compared with those of other materials. Impact testing for the new sheet material showed that the force required to displace the sheet by 1 mm was significantly higher at all thicknesses (p<0.001), whereas the puncture energy and displacement were significantly lower than those for ethylene vinyl acetate (p<0.05). The five-layer mouthguard sheet material successfully absorbed and resisted shock. Therefore, the sheet material potentially increases resistance to applied deformation in teeth and alveolar bone and maintains structure. The five-layer sheet material could expand the range of mouthguard products and help prevent oral trauma.
