Approximately 5 million teeth are lost each year in the
United States due to mouth injuries while playing
sports. Over-the-counter, one-size mouthguards neither
protect nor fit as well as they should – they can
actually interfere with proper breathing during
exertion. The American Dental Association recommends the use of a custom-made mouthguard to prevent such trauma to the mouth and teeth for the following sports: water polo, weight lifting, wrestling, soccer, squash, surfing, volleyball, skateboarding, skiing, skydiving, shotputting, racquetball, roller hockey, rugby, martial arts, handball, ice hockey, lacrosse, field hockey, football, gymnastics, acrobatics, basketball, and boxing.
