Under Armour Performance Mouthwear

Norman Athletes Turn to Dr. Bobby Carmen for an Edge

You may have never considered your jaw an integral player in athletic performance. After all, most people pay attention to the parts of their bodies that come in contact with the ball, take direct hits, or directly fuel their speed and strength. At Dr. Bobby Carmen’s office, we encourage you to look at how your jaw can either inhibit or promote athletic excellence. Learning about Under Armour Performance Mouthwear is a great step toward understanding the benefits of unlocking the power of your jaw.

Under Armour mouthguards will protect your head and teeth from injury, prevent stress hormones from slowing you down, and increase endurance. As an athlete, it’s your secret weapon.

Be protected

When you’re active, there’s always a chance of injury. This is especially true for contact sports, but any person who is training, exercising, or playing is vulnerable. An Under Armour Mouthguard absorbs some of the energy from an impact to the jaw, so the head receives minimal residual impact. This reduces the potential for sustaining a concussion.

Dodge stress

Using UA Performance Mouthwear will prevent your jaw from clenching and your body from releasing the stress hormone Cortisol, which causes fatigue, irritability, and distraction. Cortisol can wreak havoc on your game.

Keep going

Because of the way it pivots the jaw forward, a UA Performance mouthguard will enlarge your airway, which leads to a significant decrease in lactic acid buildup. With an unclenched jaw and increased air flow, you’ll notice improved strength.

The UA Mouthwear line works for athletes in virtually any sport. To discuss Under Armour Mouthwear with Dr. Carmen, call our at our Norman, OK dental office today. He’ll recommend the best model for your unique situation.
