  1. Neuromuscular Balance through ArmourBite Under Armour Performance Mouthwear

  2. How does UA Performance Mouthwear work? Boil & Bite Mouthguard & Mouthpiece Custom fit Mouthguard & Mouthpiece Influence of the power wedges: jaw dropping (downward and forward ) Benefits of the power wedges : impact protection, increased strength, increased endurance, less lactic acid, less cortisol and improved reaction time.

  3. * Glitch Glitch * Glitch * * Glitch Glitch * * Glitch *

  4. Clenching the jaw under stress inhibits performance.

  5. Trying to enhance performance or manage stress by adjusting the jaw is a centuries-old concept. Some people find their own way

  6. Our product puts a comfortable and appropriate space between your teeth relieving pressure on the TMJ..

  7. ArmourBite technology shifts the jaw joint down and forward Est. 1.5 MM Est. 3.5 MM Without ArmourBite With ArmourBite

  8. ArmourBite also enlarges the airway opening which helps increased gas exchange efficiency

  9. Increased strength (up to 20%). Increased endurance (average of 17%). Decreased lactic acid (25% at 30 minutes: 80% on VO2 Max). Increased flexibility and range of motion. Faster reaction times (up to 49% decrease) Lower heart rates during warm up, running, and cool down. Decreased cortisol, the stress hormone, 49% during exercise/stress. May help prevent concussions by reducing the G-Force impact from blows to the jaw (22% at 118 Gs). Over 10 years of scientific researches prove the performance benefits of UA Performance MouthwearJohns Hopkins University, University of Minnesota,The Citadel, University of Tennessee, University of Virginia

  10. Neuromuscular Imbalance - What is it? Different muscle activity between left and right side of the masticatory system can cause discomfort, pain and diseases in other parts of the body The masticatory system is connected through nerves and muscles with the other parts of the body

  11. Neuromuscular Imbalance - Symptoms Head Headache, Migraine Sinus complaints Touch sensitivity Sensitivity disturbance Eyes Pain behind the eyes Sensitivity to light Oral cavity Unstable bite Limitation of mouth-opening Asymmetry of mouth opening Teeth Temperature sensitivity Touch sensitivity Tooth movement Tooth neck defect Teeth grinding

  12. Neuromuscular Imbalance -Symptoms Ear Ear noises Hearing deficency Ear pain Dizziness Neck and Shoulder Stiffness of the neck Neckpain Tensions Shoulder pain Numbness in the arms/fingers JAW Jaw clicking TMJ sounds Pain in the jaw Lockjaw Uncontrolled jaw movements Throat Complaints during swallowing Hoarseness Tightness / Lump

  13. Neuromuscular Imbalance - Symptoms Backpain Pain in the joints Disk desease Scoliosis

  14. Other conditions Tinnitus Dizziness Neck complaints Headache Linked to Cervical Vertebra

  15. Neuromuscular Imbalance - Diagnostics? 1. Scientific:TMJOINT • 2. Practical:Different Myotests • physiological leg length discrepancy • bending • head rotation • shoulder rotation

  16. Neuromuscular Imbalance What are our Goals? • Reduction/ minimising the symptoms of the neuromuscular imbalance • Reduction or elimination of complaints • Performance enhancement in everyday life and in sport • Prevention - Minimising of recurrent complaints and injuries

  17. Neuromuscular Imbalance Recurrent Complaints /Injuries/Performance Limitations • EMG measurements of the big chewing muscles: • ACTA Amsterdam , CMD Department, Prof. Frank Lobbezzo • University Groningen ( scientific evaluation ) Netherlands

  25. Influence of neuromuscular dysbalance upon performance and risks of injuries • Imbalance causes unilateral dominant muscle activity • Diagnostics of imbalance of the chewing muscles with TMJOINT • Diagnostics of imbalance and changing of it by Armourbite with G-Jump • Armourbite leads to neuromuscular balance and/or reduces • imbalance • Recurring muscular injuries on the contralateral body side • Armourbite reduces risk of injuries • Armourbite supports rehabilitation • Training • Competition

  26. Goal: Neuromuscular balance UA Performance Mouthwearfor neuromuscular imbalance induced complaints and Cranio Mandibular Disorder
