Reinforcement Positioning in Custom‐Made Mouthguards for Maxillofacial Trauma Protection: A Combined In Vitro and In Silico Analyses
Reinforcement systems significantly improved impact absorption in oral tissues, enhancing protection. However, the reinforcement location did not significantly affect absorption. Finite element analysis validated the in vitro results supporting both theoretical and practical models for further study and future improvements.
