WHAT THE NECK IS THE PURE POWER MOUTHGUARD?

The Pure Power Mouthguard is more than just a mouthguard, it is an oral appliance that utilizes the principles of physiologic dentistry with the goal of removing obstacles to your body’s functioning at the upper limits of its capacity.

Physiologic dentistry views the mouth as a system that is part of the larger system of the body. It looks at the impact of imbalances within the dental system on the body’s full function. The theory is that because your jaw muscles work in conjunction with other muscles to hold your neck vertebrae straight, imbalances in the mouth system can create imbalances in the vertebrae of the neck, which can lead to imbalance down the spine. Because the spine is the structural and neural center of the body, these imbalances can lead to stress and diminished performance in the rest of the body’s system.

Although the science of this is poorly understood, there are a few scientific studies that suggest proper bite position can affect upper body strength, and certainly there are a number of athletes who are prepared to give testimonial about the effectiveness of this device.

If you are looking for an edge in your competitive sport, the Pure Power Mouthguard may be able to help you. To learn more, please contact the general dentists at Chapnick Dental Office, helping clients in Barrie, Ontario and the rest of the Toronto area.
