This video highlights the hand makeing process that goes into all our custom fit Mouthguards. Enjoy!

    Thank you for the interesting video, even though 2 years have passed. Please tell me whether you use soft plates or hard ones? And how many millimeters thick are they? Peace for everyone! And thanks again.

      We use soft. We don't remember what sport we made this mouthguard for. But use use soft plates that, when combined, add up to 2-4 mm thick. Depending on the sport.

      He used photoshop for it, Im not sure what size he used though. two fit on the mouth piece I'd assume it would be something small, but from what I can see at 6:33 it looks to be 1920x1080 hope this helped :)

    Hello sir. Big fan How do you avoid air pockets when applying the logo sheet

      Air pressure thermoforming machines work best to reduce air bubbles.

    Hello, I was wondering what type of plastic or material do you use when you create the thermoformic mold. How do you manage to keep the plastic on , without it falling off from the mouth guard itself. I could really use this information. Thank you.

      It's most likely a thin EVA sheet, that bonds with the black sheets of the mouth guard

      Focus on advertising and getting the audience to understand what exactly you sell. Make sure you have very clear instructions for making moulds, having good usable moulds for working will make life so much easier when having to make the guards.

      What machine are you using? Vacuum thermo forming machines tend to give bubbles. Pressurized thermoforming machines are good at eliminating bubbles.

      ​@@teresitamadero3447
      It's more likely to do with the plastic sheet having been exposed to moisture. If you store the sheets in open air, they will absorb moisture from the air which then causes bubbles when heated. If you keep the sheets in heat sealed moisture proof bags, and use them shortly after cutting open the sealed bag, you're much less likely to have bubbles.

      Drufomat is a dental device. It sells for over $4000. There are other brands out there...like Biostar. Either way, they are dental machines that cost in the thousands.
