What is The effect of light‐cured resin with a glass fiber net as an intermediate material for Hard & Space mouthguard about?

## Abstract ## Background/Aims Despite the use of conventional mouthguards, preventable sports‐related dental injuries continue to occur. The authors have developed a two‐layered ethylene polyvinyl acetate (EVA) mouthguard with a hard polyethylene terephthalate (PET) insert and a buffer space (H&SMG). However, adapting the PET onto the EVA layer requires skill. A light‐cured Splint Resin (SRLC) and a glass fiber net (NET) reinforcement appear to resolve this issue. The aim of this study was to investigate whether SRLC with NET could replace PET and find a more practical application for NET. ## Materials and Methods A pendulum impact testing machine and a dental model with strain gages were used. Six types of mouthguards were made: one with two laminated EVA blanks (LAM‐MG), a three‐layer type with a PET insert and an intermediate space (PET‐H&SMG), a H&SMG with SRLC insert (LC‐H&SMG), and three other types with differential NET‐SRLC reinforcement; NET on the outer surface of SRLC, NET on the inner surface of SRLC, and NET on both the outer and inner surfaces. Five mouthguards of each type were fabricated and tested ten times with impact distances of 15 and 30 cm. Forty more impacts
