I used the nosvritch mouth guard for literally one game and got one of my lower teeth broken by a long distance shot. The product wasn't defective in any way but its design inherently carries more risk than a baclava or a mesh mask and I think you should mention it.
@@leapordgeckogaming8533 Huh? That comment never blamed the product. It was just saying that the video doesn’t really highlight the added danger that comes with mouthguards well.
I did mouth guards once. They worked well and helped my heat issues. But I found that the amount of headshots I recieved skyrocketed. To a point that it wasn't just bad luck. Also, my teeth were fine but my lips and surrounding facial tissue got bruised. So fuck mouthguards.
mouthguard is designed to absorb and distribute the force of blunt impacts, like those from sports, to protect against concussions and soft tissue injuries. However, an airsoft gun fires small, hard projectiles at high speeds, concentrating force on a small area. A mouthguard isn’t made to protect against this type of precise, high-speed impact. For airsoft, a full-face mask or a hard dental shield is needed to protect your teeth effectively. This is a piece taken from an article I read a few years ago when I was researching whether a mouthguard would be good enough for airsoft use. I would highly recommend buying proper face protection. Teeth are expensive. These Novritsch guys may have money to replace their teeth, but regular people don't.
I can recommend making your own stainless mesh insert with 1/1.2mm stainless mesh. Basically cover the sides in strong bias tape / thin finely woven webbing. The delicate bias tape isn't enough to protect you from the sharp points, and the wire might poke through the loosely woven webbing. You can add some soft material on the inside edges, shape it so it touches on either side of your mouth, not actually touching your lips. Makes it easier to talk clearly. The shape is basically just a rectangle that's tall enough to not slide down (sits on your chin), and wide enough to cover your teeth. Either just shove it in your balaclava or sew it on. This is the best solution I've found so far, cost about £5. Doesn't immediately rust like some other inserts you can buy.
Pro tip: If you wear a scarf or balaklava either by itself or under a mesh mask, allways leave your nose uncovered. If you breath through your nose, he air flows downwards which makes it harder for your eye protection to fog up; But even if you breath through your mouth, the seal of the scarf around your face will be much thighter that if your nose would be covered I use a mesh mask with a balaclava under and it works perfectly
Also used only mouth guard and last Sunday I got hit on the upper lip. My upper lip got swollen and friends called my "platypus." Now gonna buy the balaclava with steel mesh on the mouth area.
I actually got around it all, you look a bit silly but who cares. I got a full face mesh mask, feels really free and spacious underneathe. I then put some safety glasses underneath to stop fragments. Works really well.
I’m a former field hockey player. Mouth guards are not the best choice in all my experience with them, if using them in airsoft, as you do not protect either lower teeth (if not a full one, I tried one, so bad) or your nose. Also, boiled mouthguards of not the greatest quality sometimes are not healty. Also it’s a new way to speak. But, the only big positive, you will nose breath better
What i did is cut out mesh to cover my nose and mouth, and added straps to the back. That way im able to comfortably wear a balaclava while still being safe.
Going to be honest, i have always ran an S10 (with polycarbet outsert lenses), with cardio making up for my stupidity, just to clarify i do mean form my very first game
Funny enough i had a Dye i5 face mask and while playing airsoft a player slide underneath me like slip and slide style and somehow show my bottom tooth out. And ended up getting a root canal. Im just unlucky like that
I have no top middle teeth so I don’t really care and run zero lower face protection BUT I don’t encourage it wear atleast a shemagh or lightweight breathable mask (if you care).
i forgot my face protection once and thought that itll be fine to do one skirm without well lets just say that a BB got stuck in my nose till this day i have no idea how and i broke a tooth
I run a mesh mask and have been shot in the face wayyy too many times. It's definitely a good idea and has held up beautifully. Protect that smile broski 😁

Spending hundreds of dollars on dentist is not worth the risk at all. It is a numbers game , sooner or later you will get hit in the teeth
Yeah airsoft attracts a lot of immature dickheads who go for headshots just because
@@thewastedones-official Play stupid games, wind stupid prizes 🤷♂️. Protect your face bro
Can you hear it? The Mortal Kombat theme song?

Your ok with a bloody swollen lip? That may not heal due to infection being in the woods....

When are y'all gunna make a dmr ghillie cover? I run an sr25 but ur m4 cover is too small to fit it.
Just buy a full seal mask with an anti fog film.
Just invest in an arcteryx leaf and your chilling
Metal mesh seems to be breathable enough for me
What i did is cut out mesh to cover my nose and mouth, and added straps to the back. That way im able to comfortably wear a balaclava while still being safe.
I use a balaclava with hole, I wear glasses so I need to wear goggles and I have not fogged 👍

I use a mesh mask and en ex fog, and after I ate a round that would have taken a tooth out if my lips where up, i refuse to play without it
I have antifog, so this isn’t an issue for me
just get a high quality antifog mask
Ya mesh is probably a bad idea im pretty sure it can be worse then no face protection

@@matto7338 Isn't full seal better though
How could it possibly be worse than no facepro, I'm genuinely curious?
@@die_ware_jacob I honestly forgot I might’ve been thinking the bb would split into shards or maybe the mesh would hit your face idk
@Aidenjam25 so low velocity shards on ur face is worse than a bb flying it 400fps shattering a tooth, got it
Just dont have the face mask vover your nose and youre sweet
