Protect Your Teeth During Sports ActivitiesFive million teeth each year are knocked out from trauma or injury to the mouth while participating in sports. We encourage the use of a custom-made mouthguard to protect all your teeth. The one-size-fits-all mouthguards sold in stores do not give adequate protection. They do not fit most athletes and often hinder their best performance due to making breathing difficult. The American Dental Association recommends the use of custom mouthguards for these sports:
Acrobatics, weight lifting, basketball, volleyball, boxing, squash, field hockey, water polo, football, gymnastics, surfing, handball, ice hockey, soccer, lacrosse, martial arts, skydiving, racquetball, rugby, roller hockey, shotputting, skateboarding, skiing, and wrestling.
