The article discusses research on how the cardiorespiratory responses of athletes to exercise and physical agility are influenced by over-the-counter vented mouthguard use. Topics explored include the protective benefits of mouthguard use in sports, the experimental physical agility sessions completed by study participants such as the 40-meter dash, vertical jump test, and shuttle run, and the monitoring and evaluation of heart rate and blood lactate of research subjects.
