from the Truro Daily News,
The Pure Power MouthGuard uses neuromuscular dentistry to relax the muscles and place the athlete’s jaw in the optimal position to enhance performance. The mouthguard brings the lower jaw down and forward to align the athlete’s bite. For some it increases balance, breathing or upper body strength.
“This is more than a mouthguard,” said Makkar, who referred to it as a legal performance enhancer.
Now it is being worn by members of NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs, Carolina Panthers and Seattle Seahawks, the NHL’s Ottawa Senators, New York Islanders and Montreal Canadiens, the NBA’s Indiana Pacers, the NCAA’s Florida Gators basketball and football teams as well as competitors in Ultimate Fighting Challenge.

As somebody who’s had an orthotic device made for a specific health issue, I can definitely tell you that the concept has merit in terms of alleviating neck/jaw pain and, in bringing the jaw forward, opening up the airway slightly, but I’m highly skeptical of this concept, to say the least, especially as the cost of a custom-made orthotic dental device is somewhere north of $700 these days.
