Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for manufacturing a mouthpiece with desired dimensions or thicknesses that may enhance the performance of an individual when participating in a contact sport. Mouthpieces and methods consistent with the present disclosure may include incremental steps of three dimensional printing that use different materials. Dimensions and materials used when manufacturing mouthpieces of the present disclosure may be optimized according to user preferences or settings.

Abstract: The present application pertains to a customized orthotic mouthpiece for horses and methods associated with creating and using the customized orthotic mouthpieces. These custom mouthpieces, as opposed to the typical bits generally used, do not restrict or impede movement or position of the horse's tongue. Furthermore, the custom mouthpieces are able to increase the flow of oxygen for the horse to consume compared to typical bits used, thereby enhancing the ability of the horse to function. These custom mouthpieces will prove useful when the horse is involved in competition, training, and recovery. In particular, improvements to the horse's respiratory, physiological, and neurological performance can be seen, especially when the horse is active for long periods of time due to the increased flow of oxygen.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for identifying a mouthpiece thickness that provides an athlete with optimal breathing that enhances the performance of an athlete when participating in a contact sport. Mouthpieces and methods consistent with the present disclosure may also increase the safety of a contact sport by identifying mouthpiece sizes that correspond to a lower injury rate.
