To provide a mouth guard-preparing sheet from which a mouth guard to be used
for
preventing teeth and their surrounding tissues from a trauma occurred mainly in
sports and having a uniform thickness between the right and left sides thereof
can be prepared, without causing a problem in the thickness of an anterior teeth
portion becoming thin in the preparation of a custom-made mouth guard by heat-sucking.
The mouth guard-preparing sheet is made of a thermoplastic resin having a plane
shape substantially coincident with a shape of a fixed frame of a heat-sucking
type mouth preparation device and provided with a mouth guard portion from a site
to be contacted with a labial surface side of a gingiva of an anterior teeth portion
to a molar portion side and an elongation tab portion in an exterior direction
of a mouth guard portion, wherein said mouth guard portion has a thickness of 1.510
mm; said elongation tab portion has a thickness of 0.10.95 times the thickness
of said mouth guard portion; and a stepped portion between the mouth guard portion
and the elongation tap portion is in a straight line.
