Abstract
A mouthpiece includes first and second bodies over teeth of a user. The bodies comprise frames with a bite pad between upper and lower teeth. The bite pad is molded in the frames while in situ in the mouth. The frames, prior to having the bite pads in place are hollow spaces with spanning elements spaced from each other projecting into the hollow space between a top and a bottom of each of the frames. An upper wall of the frame includes an inwardly directed lip directed towards a space inside the frames. A lower wall of the frame is extended in height relatively longer than the upper wall. A shim or a clip is inserted between the incisor edges for facilitating alignment of the incisor edges. The connector includes a slot for accommodating an extension of the shim when the shim is located with the connector.
