Abstract
The utilization and application of mouthguards have become an indispensable tool in sports in recent years. The primary objective of mouthguards is to safeguard the orofacial region, particularly the hard and soft tissues of the mouth. The purpose of mouthguards is to shield athletes from jaw and teeth fractures. Several studies have investigated the significant cushioning role of mouthguards and their capacity to reduce the incidence of teeth and jaw fractures. The preventive and protective properties of mouthguards have been the focus of extensive research in recent years. The use of digital technologies in the manufacturing of mouthguards is another crucial factor to consider. Traditional mouthguards involved several steps, such as taking impressions with alginate. However, with the advent of intraoral scanners, these steps can now be bypassed to achieve a precise and optimal fit for the athlete. This customized fitting and optimal retention lead to better usage of the mouthguards by athletes. The following thesis aims to analyse the various types of mouthguards, the different fabrication methods, and their protective and preventive role against injuries to gain a better understanding of the current research on mouthguards.
Abstract (croatian)
Korištenje i primjena štitnika za zube posljednjih je godina postalo nezaobilazno sredstvo u sportu. Primarni cilj štitnika za zube je zaštita orofacijalne regije, posebno tvrdih i mekih tkiva usta. Svrha štitnika za zube je zaštititi sportaše od loma čeljusti i zuba. Nekoliko je studija istraživalo značajnu ulogu amortizacijskih svojstava štitnika za zube i njihovu sposobnost da smanje učestalost prijeloma zuba i čeljusti. Preventivna i zaštitna svojstva štitnika za zube bila su u središtu opsežnih istraživanja posljednjih godina. Upotreba digitalnih tehnologija u proizvodnji štitnika za zube još je jedan ključni čimbenik koji treba uzeti u obzir. Tradicionalni štitnici za zube uključivali su nekoliko koraka, poput uzimanja otisaka alginatom. Međutim, s pojavom intraoralnih skenera, ti se koraci sada mogu zaobići kako bi se postiglo precizno i optimalno pristajanje za sportaše. Ova individualna preciznost dosjeda i optimalna retencija dovode do boljeg korištenja štitnika za zube od strane sportaša. Ovaj diplomski rad ima za cilj analizirati različite vrste štitnika za zube, različite metode izrade te njihovu zaštitnu i preventivnu ulogu kod ozljeda kako bi se bolje razumjelo trenutna istraživanja štitnika za usta.
