Why use ProForm Mouthguard Laminates?

The ProForm Mouthguard incorporates 3 layers of thermal plastics laminated together at extreme pressure. The layers are cross-woven under these extreme pressures to increase tensile strength and shock transmission. The laminate also incorporates a hardened piece of plastic (the palatal brace), which is placed behind the 4 centrals to work as a shock transmitter. Find diagrams showing the fabrication process.
Heat & Pressure laminate the ProForm mouthguards into a single unit with the palatal brace imbedded between 2 layers of thermal plastics.
The Palatal Brace now becomes a shock transmitter.
The ProForm Laminate is vacuum formed over a patient's maxillary stone cast model. The brace is positioned behind the anterior teeth to maximize protection of the most injury prone teeth.
