U.S., July 22 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07716631) titled 'Effects of a Thermoformable Mouthguard on Cervical Posture and Running Performance in Non-professional Runners' on July 16.
Brief Summary: The stomatognathic system is functionally connected to the overall body system. Occlusal modification using intraoral devices may therefore influence postural alignment and physiological responses during exercise. However, evidence regarding the combined effects of mouthguard use on cervical posture and running performance remains limited. This study evaluates the effects of a thermoformable mouthguard on craniovertebral angle, heart rate, respiratory rate and running performance in non-professio...
