Can a mouth guard actually enhance sports performance?

The Makkar Advantage Mouthguard does and many amateur and professional athletes alike are raving about it! Dr. Ryan Reeves is the one here in Lorton, Virginia offering the Makkar Advantage Mouthguard. Local athletes in the area are now calling on him so they can get fitted and have that edge they need in their sport of choice.

Athletes like Shaq O’Neil, Cleveland Cavaliers, Josh Brown, St. Louis Rams, Michael Redd, Milwaukee Bucks, and Scott McCarron, PGA are just a handful of notable athletes using the device. The entire New Orleans Saints are also using the Makkar Advantage Mouthguard and credit the device for their success on the field this season.

Here’s what the pros have to say about the PPM:

“When I went to the Phoenix Suns last year I introduced the Makkar Advantage Mouthguard to them and they believed in it, and I wore it all year. It was probably one of my best years as a pro in a long time. I played 70 some odd games. I did not have any injuries, my flexibility was good, and I ran great and felt great. So, my advice to the average athlete and the average person is that if you want to feel your potential, then you have to get the Makkar Advantage Mouthguard.” Shaq O’Neil, Cleveland Cavaliers. 

“I’m a field goal kicker so at first I thought: why would I need a mouth guard. But the PPM has really helped me run faster because when wearing the device my body is in its optimum position.” Josh Brown, Kicker for the St. Louis Rams.  

“The PPM has helped me most with balance, which in turn, has helped other areas of my game. I don’t feel like I have to exert as much effort to hit the ball as far. I feel a lot more solid over the golf ball. Balance is huge for golf. Being on balance during a golf swing is the only way you’re going to hit the ball solid. I feel a lot more stable in my set up.” Scot McCarron, PGA Golfer. 

“Once I started using the PPM, I noticed a big difference instantaneously. It was incredible, and blew my mind away. The results speak for themselves… At first I tried to find something wrong with it; however, I can’t, I just can’t.” Michael Redd, Milwaukee Bucks.

Not every mouth guard can enhance sports performance, but mouth guards made by doctors who practice in neuromuscular dentistry, who know how to manage dental bite, and who know how to relax jaw muscles to put them in a more relaxed position, can align the whole body to perform at its very best. This is exactly what the Makkar Advantage Mouthguard does.

Most of the population has neuromuscular issues, misalignments such as an overbite or a TMJ (temporomandibular joint) problem that cause muscle tension.

Athletes like Shaq O’Neil, Cleveland Cavaliers, Josh Brown, St. Louis Rams, Michael Redd, Milwaukee Bucks, and Scott McCarron, PGA are just a handful of notable athletes using the device.

Sometimes these problems are hidden, because people have adapted to them -- 'My neck is sore, my back is sore. I can't lift my arm because it's numb sometimes, I have headaches because of stress, I have bad posture because I work at a computer, but that's OK.' Those are all excuses people have, not realizing there are much deeper issues behind it.

The Makkar Advantage Mouthguard is part of a comprehensive mouth guard system, in which the upper guard protects the teeth, while the bottom guard holds the jaw in optimal position.

In any sport, if you look at athletes before they run a distance or they jump, they stick their tongue out -- subconsciously they're trying to put themselves in the most comfortable position. It's difficult to put yourself in this position doing that, but high-tech mouth guards do it every single time. It's an instant improvement as evident in those who use the Makkar Advantage Mouthguard.

Normal mouth guards are simply made from dental impressions, and the plastic that they are made of simply buffer the teeth.

The ideal position jaw alignment or "sweet spot" is found using computer technology and flexibility tests, range-of-motion tests, that show how much bite affects performance and overall body alignment. Because, if neck muscles are fighting or compensating for jaw muscles, back muscles are fighting or compensating for neck muscles, and pelvic muscles are fighting or compensating for back muscles -- it's a chain reaction.

High-tech, scientifically-designed mouth guards allow muscles to work simultaneously in harmony instead of some muscles having to work harder to compensate for others, which relaxes muscles in the whole body, allowing athletes to perform 20- to 50-per-cent better.

There are currently over 300 professional athletes using the Makkar Advantage Mouthguard, from MLB, the NBA, NFL, and NHL. This doesn’t include the list of over 1000 collegiate and amateur athletes who are embracing the Makkar Advantage Mouthguard phenomenon. 

If you are an athlete, looking for a new edge, then you have to get fitted with this device. 

You will notice a difference, there’s no doubt about it.
