Sports dentistry

This is a solution for athletes that helps prevent dental trauma that may occur during sports and improves athletic performance.

The threat of 'trauma' that follows athletes

It balances the oral cavity and the entire body, and promotes injury prevention and improved athletic performance.

[ A mouthguard prevents most dental injuries simply by wearing it.]

Unlike off-the-shelf products on the market, this solution provides a personalized mouthguard that offers superior comfort while helping all teeth bite together evenly. By maintaining proper occlusion, it enhances physical balance, concentration, and agility to improve athletic performance, and serves to protect the teeth, alveolar bone, facial bones, and brain from the impact caused by sports.

It has already been reported in academia that wearing mouthguards improves the performance of athletes.

By fabricating the crowns to fit each athlete's individual tooth shape, they offer excellent oral comfort, prevent easy slippage, and ensure even occlusal contact, thereby enhancing athletic performance. K Dental Clinic utilizes a digital oral scanner for production instead of the complex traditional process of taking impressions, resulting in faster and more precise results.

A mouthguard is a good preventive treatment that reduces the impact on not only the teeth but also the brain and spine.

Mouthguards prevent most injuries that occur during strenuous exercise in a simple way. They are effective in cushioning tooth fractures, tooth dislocations, jawbone fractures, and impact to the jaw, cervical spine, and brain.

A mouthguard is essential for improving reflexes, concentration, and athletic performance.

The teeth and temporomandibular joint area plays a central role in the nervous system, as well as in the muscles responsible for muscle strength and balance. In other words, poor dental arch balance can have a negative impact on motor skills.

If the bite is correct, the force of clenching the teeth becomes stronger, and muscle strength improves.

According to research by Professor Choi Dae-gyun's team at Kyung Hee University, when maximum force was applied to the teeth, knee muscles generated 57% more power, and ankles (42%), hips (31%), lower back (20%), and shoulders (17%) also produced greater force. Mouthguards fill in areas of malocclusion to protect the teeth and restore balance, helping to improve athletic performance.

If the bite is correct, body shaking is stabilized and the sense of balance improves.

According to research by Professor Choi Dae-gyun's team at Kyung Hee University, when dental occlusion is stable, body shaking is more than four times less, while the balance scores of both soles of the feet are more than five times higher. This indicates that the better the dental occlusion, the better the athletes' sense of balance and the more their athletic performance improves.

If your occlusion is correct, you can exhibit a high level of instantaneous concentration.

According to research by Kyung Hee University Dental Hospital, the emission of alpha waves—brainwaves associated with peak attention span—was significantly higher during exercise before and after orthodontic treatment. In other words, wearing a mouthguard to correct the condition of the teeth enables a high level of instantaneous concentration.

K Dental Hospital fosters Korea's promising young athletes

This is a partner hospital of Korea National Sport University.

K Dental Hospital is actively supporting the growth of aspiring young athletes to the extent that, following the signing ceremony for the Korea National Sport University's cooperative hospital agreement, it produced and donated mouthguards for free to athletes in the Taekwondo department.

If your teeth are not strong, it can negatively affect your athletic performance. Since oral health is directly linked to overall health, consistent care is necessary.
