- How to make a custom mouth guard with text. This mouthguard is an MMA mouthguard with text. The customer had asked for the text to read "Cheese", and wanted the text to be in Old English writing. This video highlights the hand makeing process that goes into all our custom fit Mouthguards. Enjoy!
Nice work loved👌👌👌👌👌
That's amazing
Thanks!
Great
Thank you for the interesting video, even though 2 years have passed. Please tell me whether you use soft plates or hard ones? And how many millimeters thick are they? Peace for everyone! And thanks again.
We use soft. We don't remember what sport we made this mouthguard for. But use use soft plates that, when combined, add up to 2-4 mm thick. Depending on the sport.
Nice work 👌🏻
Can you please let me know what software you’re using to design the logos / customise decals that can then be printed and trimmed on vinyl?
He used photoshop for it, Im not sure what size he used though. two fit on the mouth piece I'd assume it would be something small, but from what I can see at 6:33 it looks to be 1920x1080 hope this helped :)
We use Adobe Illustrator
Hello sir. Big fan How do you avoid air pockets when applying the logo sheet
Air pressure thermoforming machines work best to reduce air bubbles.
Did u find the problem?
what was the material used for purring the impression ??
Diestone
Hello, I was wondering what type of plastic or material do you use when you create the thermoformic mold. How do you manage to keep the plastic on , without it falling off from the mouth guard itself. I could really use this information. Thank you.
It's most likely a thin EVA sheet, that bonds with the black sheets of the mouth guard
thanks man, I really appreciate your response. Could you be more specific on how I could actually get my hands on sth like this. Thank you.@@user-hw6ft9uu6w
Where can l buy that plastic
Hi, can you tell what is the material that you use for graphics? What are the letters made of? :) Greetings
I'm not sure what the graphic material is made of But I've been trying to make one myself and I've heard the material from the stickers are laminated on
The material we use is Vinyl. The machine we use cutout the vinyl is a Graphtech.
Can you use the blue vacuum former you have in the corner for this thickness? Eg 5mm
@@KellieKellie-xl4gy No that machine only fits 1MM sheets. Good for retainers and teeth whitening trays, and that is about it.
What is the name of the font you used for this guard? I cant seem to find it on your site
This customer choose the font Old London in all CAPS
I wish he would explain anything. Like the tools the material. Please at least a list of what you used.
What is the name of the pink stuff you painted on? If you don’t mind me asking
Separating agent
What is the material of the sheet you use
EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate)
@@Dcmouthguards where can l buy that
What are the letters made of? vinyl?
Yes
How do you not get air bubbles on the clear layer I keep getting air bubbles when I place the final clear layer
What machine are you using? Vacuum thermo forming machines tend to give bubbles. Pressurized thermoforming machines are good at eliminating bubbles.
@@Dcmouthguards yea I have a vacuum forming machine is there a trick to get them out
@@teresitamadero3447
It's more likely to do with the plastic sheet having been exposed to moisture. If you store the sheets in open air, they will absorb moisture from the air which then causes bubbles when heated. If you keep the sheets in heat sealed moisture proof bags, and use them shortly after cutting open the sealed bag, you're much less likely to have bubbles.
Hi what’s the name of the heat compressor you use and what’s the thickness of mouthpiece
Drufomat Scan. Thickness for this mouthguard is roughly 4MM
@@Dcmouthguards each slices or the total thickness is 4mm?
Drufomat is a dental device. It sells for over $4000. There are other brands out there...like Biostar. Either way, they are dental machines that cost in the thousands.
Which what’s you cut the plastics ? This hot matchine , what’s the name ?
Graphtech
I’m tryin to start my business I’m a dental technician and dental assistant any tips
Focus on advertising and getting the audience to understand what exactly you sell. Make sure you have very clear instructions for making moulds, having good usable moulds for working will make life so much easier when having to make the guards.
How has business been going so far?
What type of printer is it?
This is not a printer but a Vinyl Cutter. The Brand is Graphtech.
How do you do the customize logos? If it's a personal colorful logo for instance
@@lizm2306 We print them out on our vinyl printer machine.
What’s the brand of Vynil printer machine?
How can I learn how to make these ? I want to get in the business .
The hardest part will be getting all the equipment, and materials. I started with a lot less and a lot cheaper tools then this, and they were still worth about €1200
so you guys dont shape the mouth guard to my gums and lips?
We shape to the anatomy of your teeth and gums
Как мне можно с тобой связаться
my goodness, what a terrible way to work
Not if they enjoy it
It's a small business 😂
