Why we need mouth Guards in sport.

All Dental Associations have found that one third of all dental injuries are sport related.  In most sports it is mandatory to wear mouth guards like rugby , boxing , soccer and league.  


One of the reasons for wearing mouthguards is to protect jaw injuries, cheeks and our gums.  Once you have a really bad accident when you play sport, your teeth will be knocked out and that's why people should wear mouth guard because you don’t want to lose your teeth, surely you will agree with me. Usually mouth guards would be around $5.00 but in dentists they would be about $200 so if you were smart you should probably buy it from the 2 dollar shop because it cheaper and it’s safe.



Mouth guards help prevent brain damage. If your face slams into the ground your jaw would literally slam into your skull to cause your brain would bounce out of place. That's why it is very important to wear a mouth guard, because you’ll never know what would happen. You wouldn’t want to risk losing your teeth so you should definitely wear a mouth guard.


Losing your teeth wouldn’t be really great. That's why you should always wear a mouth guard. Mouth guards help keep your teeth and your mouth safe. A lot of kids have lost their teeth because they have not been wearing a mouth guard so you should be lucky that you aren’t one of them.

Most people would agree that we must wear mouthguards during sport to protect them from losing your teeth.
