ABSTRACT: Dangers of high impacts in activities where routine tasks have to be executed may appear every day, and pose a risk to the human body. There is the necessity for the obtention of materials that can overcome this issue, and in such way the research of good mechanical properties for the energy absorption of impacts is relevant. Many types of materials are used to face this risk for example in automotive parts, aeronautics, and sports. Teeth damage can appear more certainly in occupations or activities that imply the risk of receiving a physical impact to the head or mandible. Subjects that are majorly prone to these risks are men or women playing high impact sports, or little kids/babies in their homes that can be affected by accidents in numerous spaces, with mouth injuries mostly related to the soft and hard tissues. In such cases, these hazards harm teeth mayorly by subluxation or avulsion of the central or lateral parts, by rotation of the teeth bezel, or by fractures to the integrity of a tooth, conducing to an aftermath on the gingival tissues, and even to brain damage, therefore, deforming the aesthetics, functionality, and mental health of an individual. Another factor that can influence such consequences is the age or the trauma history of the person involved. Some studies have been conducted to evaluate mechanical properties of dentin and enamel in teeth, on periodontal ligament, soft tissue and cortical bone. In a study to United States’ collegiate women field hockey players from 2004-2005 and 2008-2009 the incidence and epidemiology of head, face, and eye injuries reported to the National Collegiate Athletic Association Injury Surveillance System were analyzed concluding a rate of traumatic dental injuries of 0.06 per 1,000 athlete-exposures being the contact with an apparatus a 72.9% of the causes of all injuries. Statistics in the United States of America, focused on contact sports like basketball and football, have shown that a significant percentage of elementary, middle school, college, and university students suffered from some damage to their mouth, specifically their teeth, when practicing contact sports. Such consequences come from sudden strikes in the game field or by an accumulation of hits. Another study in the Netherlands made to 7 field hockey clubs, analyzed 1,299 out of 6,585 players who responded satisfactorily a 33-item questionnaire finding that a 16% (214) had at least one orodental injury in their career, and that the injuries were less severe to those that used a mouthguard. A PubMed search from 1960 through April 2012 revealed that dental trauma was still a common problem for the sports medicine teams. Due to the aforementioned, health disciplines such as dentistry and biomedical engineering have prompted prevention steps to the underlying problem of dental hazards. The possibilities rely on the construction or creation of devices that can receive these impacts and absorb the energy coming from a direct or projectile impact. Furthermore, the solution tends to focus on covering the teeth implementing wearable protective equipment by sportsmen and women. This protection comes as mouthguards produced mainly from the thermoplastic ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) which can be of three types: stock, boil and bite, custom-made vacuum thermoformed or pressure thermoformed, these latter either in one or two layers. The need for proper dental protection in sports is what inspired this work. The experimentation will mostly reach the mechanical testing of a new composite, possibly with a potential to be used as a custom-made mouth protection or in other objects in the sports industry or domestic needs.
