Abstract
Abstract Using a new polyolefin material without impressions and models, fifty-two mouthguards were fabricated at chairside by a dental professional. Patient acceptance, operator assessment, mouthguard retention and fabrication time were assessed. The study demonstrated the practicality of custom-made mouthguard fabrication over fixed orthodontic appliances and recommends the procedure as a useful adjunct to orthodontic practice.
期刊介绍：
The Australasian Orthodontic Journal (AOJ) is the official scientific publication of the Australian Society of Orthodontists.
Previously titled the Australian Orthodontic Journal, the name of the publication was changed in 2017 to provide the region with additional representation because of a substantial increase in the number of submitted overseas'' manuscripts. The volume and issue numbers continue in sequence and only the ISSN numbers have been updated.
The AOJ publishes original research papers, clinical reports, book reviews, abstracts from other journals, and other material which is of interest to orthodontists and is in the interest of their continuing education. It is published twice a year in November and May.
The AOJ is indexed and abstracted by Science Citation Index Expanded (SciSearch) and Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition.
