That is the biggest load of crap I've ever seen on Wikipedia.

SeaCure mouthpieces are not DIR-compliant.
My question: Is there some type of replacement mouthpiece that I can put on my Titan LX? I like how the Atomic mouthpiece on my octo just fits in between my teeth and there is no upper part to it. Any thoughts or suggestions?
You can buy just the Atomic mouthpiece and put it on any reg (I have a Scubapro reg). That's what I did. I think it should only cost you $40 or so. If you are tinkering, maybe you might consider putting on the Atomic swivel too. Another adjustment I made to mine that I like, but it will set you back over $100.

If you like the Atomic mouthpiece, my understanding is that this one is basically the same mouthpiece:
Buy Innovative Comfort Cushion Rubber Mouthpiece RB-0376/0372 and other scuba diving gear at scuba.com
I have this mouthpiece in a regulator that I use occasionally (when I am working in our pond to kill invasive aquatic plants) and I find it is a very comfortable mouthpiece.
I agree with this, it's exactly what I did with all my Scubapro regs (10 of them.) I thought the Scubapro standard mouthpieces were cheap.
Even better, Phil at Divesports.com sells a mouthpiece that as far as I can tell is an exact copy of the Atomic model (if not the same thing period,) for a very, very good price. It even comes in assorted colors. You can find it here:
Innovative Scuba Comfort Cushion Mouthpiece - Colored Mouthpieces - Comfort Cushion Mouthpiece
I find this to be a very comfortable mouthpiece. It's a different direction from the Seacure, which I didn't like because I once had to use someone else's, but it may very well solve your problem like it did mine.
While I have tried this mouthpiece and it is great for it's design. Although diving in strenuous enviroments with it is not a great idea. (Diving +100 ft). The pressure at this depth actually began to make the little bit of jaw fatigue I was experiencing worse.
