Abstract : | [Abstract] We conducted experiments to determine whether the use of mouth guards has any effect on competitive performance. Our results are divided into three categories : 1) athletes who do not regularly use mouthguards and who are compelled to perform with them are negatively affected by their use, althouth the standard deviation of this statistic was large ; 2) in athletic activities that require a high level of instantaneous power outoput, athletes wearing custum-made mouthguards outperformed those wearing ready-made mouthguards ; 3) athlete sensation of flexibility and sense of balance are both affected by the placebo effect. |
