Improvements in cushioned custom dental guard to be constructed with EVA instead of Polyshok. The molding process ensures that the mouth guard provides even fit on all of the teeth. The custom fit is performed by taking an impression of the upper teeth and gums of the user. The dental guard can then be constructed to ensure a proper custom fit. Each layer provides a different function to provide an ideal cushion, as well as integration of artwork that is visible through the front of the dental guard. The dental guard may include air cells or chambers. The air cells provide a cushion by compressing the air cells to absorb an impact and spread the force of the impact over a greater area. A reinforcing wire maintains the shape and distribute impact forces. The reinforcing wire is completely embedded and encapsulated within the dental guard.
