Smile Protection That Lasts
Just as you wouldn’t go to a sports practice or game without your uniform or protective gear, using a sports mouth guard is essential for protecting your teeth. An estimated 13-39% of dental injuries occur during sports, and since mouthguards became mandatory in American football, around 200,000 mouth and teeth injuries have been prevented annually. However, injuries aren’t limited to contact sports, basketball players are now more likely to suffer facial and dental injuries due to interactions with the ball, ground, or hoop. Despite this, mouthguards are still not required in many schools and teams for these sports.
