Abstract
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for identifying a mouthpiece thickness that provides an athlete with optimal breathing that enhances the performance of an athlete when participating in a contact sport. Mouthpieces and methods consistent with the present disclosure may also increase the safety of a contact sport by identifying mouthpiece sizes that correspond to a lower injury rate.
Claims20
A method for selecting an optimal mouthpiece for a wearer, the method comprising:
- collecting performance data for each of a plurality of different mouthpieces worn by the wearer during performance of an activity over time, wherein each mouthpiece has a different vertical opening and occlusal thickness, the collected data stored in memory;
- analyzing the collected performance data;
- and
- identifying, based on the analysis of the collected performance data, a preferred mouthpiece of the plurality of different mouthpieces.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium for executing a method for selecting an optimal mouthpiece for an athlete to wear when participating in a contact sport, the method comprising:
- collecting performance data for each of a plurality of different mouthpieces worn by the wearer during performance of an activity over time, wherein each mouthpiece has a different vertical opening and occlusal thickness, the collected data stored in memory;
- analyzing the collected performance data;
- and
- identifying, based on the analysis of the collected performance data, a preferred mouthpiece of the plurality of different mouthpieces.
A system for selecting an optimal mouthpiece for a wearer, the system comprising:
- a plurality of different mouthpieces, each mouthpiece having a different thickness corresponding to a different incisal opening in a mouth of the wearer;
- one or more sensors that collect data regarding the wearer of the plurality of different mouthpieces during performance of an activity over time,
- memory that stores the collected data;
- and
- a processor that executes instructions stored in memory, wherein execution of the instructions by the processor identifies a preferred mouthpiece from the plurality of mouthpieces, the selection based on analysis of the collected performance data.
