A mouthguard is a protective device for the mouth that covers the teeth and gums to prevent and reduce injury to the teeth, arches, lips and gums. A mouthguard is most often used to prevent injury in contact sports, as a treatment for bruxism or TMD, or as part of certain dental procedures, such as tooth bleaching or sleep apnea. Depending on application, it may also be called a mouth protector, mouth piece, gumshield, gumguard, nightguard, occlusal splint, bite splint, or bite plane.

HitIQ provides quantifiable solution to a misunderstood problem.
Born out of two years of Research and Development, HitIQ Australia was launched in the belief that a shift towards data driven decision making was the only path to progress for the sports concussion challenge facing both the elite and grassroots level.
Concussions are now an enormous public health problem.
Developing the right product, producing the right data & making meaningful insights into that data to ensure the appropriate response and subsequent management to head impacts is what their cutting edge team is dedicated to delivering. The current observational method employed has proven itself ineffective in providing the necessary care to their children and athletes alike.
Their team is the driving force behind turning their concept into a reality. They proudly stand behind their product and have put the smartest brains and the most passionate of hearts to this solution.

Prevent’s goal is to make athletes safer by eliminating undetected concussions. We provide parents, coaches and trainers the technology needed to monitor athletes in real time on the field of play.
Undetected and untreated concussions can result in a variety of health issues, including cognitive and behavioral problems, ruining the lives of many athletes. As a result of high profile lawsuits and tragedies in the NFL and NCAA, concussion awareness is growing rapidly and has resulted in all 50 states passing laws on concussions in sports for youth and high school athletes. Further evidence of the level of concern by parents is the precipitous 9.5% drop in youth football participation.
