| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the highly functionalized mouth guard mouthguard (MG; a protective device against oral trauma), the use of glass-fiber-reinforced MG material and the setting of the buffering space effectively slowed down the impact propagation, which suggested that the effect characteristics differed depending on the impact strength. Furthermore, impact tests of clinical MGs showed that glass-fiber-reinforced MGs were more effective in dispersing a wide area than in delaying impact propagation, and that the setting of the buffering space further improved the synergistic impact dispersion effect.
For clinical application of glass fiber reinforced MG, it is necessary to consider the area of the buffering space according to the expected impact, and it is important to provide a design that is appropriate for the expected impact.
