NBA Press Release
“Jaw position is everything,” he says. “If the jaw and neck muscles aren’t relaxed, the rest of the body is adversely effected. 90% of the population has an overbite, which means that most of the time, people have tension problems. They are working against muscle tension without even being aware of it.”“What The Edge does, is hold the jaw in its optimal position, relaxing those crucial muscles and therefore allowing the body to perform at it’s peak.”
The Edge is part of a comprehensive mouth guard system, which includes the Pure Power Mouthguard, or PPM. The PPM protects the upper teeth, while The Edge, worn on the lower jaw, holds the jaw in optimal position. Only specially trained and licensed dentists, such as Dr. May, can fit athletes with the device.
The inventor of The Edge is a Canadian dentist, Dr. Anil Makkar. Both Dr. Makkar and Dr. May are graduates of the esteemed Las Vegas Institute (LVI) for Advanced Dentistry.
