An Illinois hospital study says that almost 10% of all dental Injuries are spo
related. In collision sports, such as football, hockey and boxing, the risk of injury
obvious. Athletes who participate in these sports are required to wear protective gear'.
However In contact sports such as basketball, baseball, softball, wrestling, soccer
and volleyball, protective mouth gear is not mandatory and there appears to be little'
awareness of the risks of dental kijury. • •

Almost 12 percent of male athletes between agei 12 and 18 reported oral injuries
32% of those were associated with football, 211/2 % with basketball, 181/2 % with;.
baseball. In a survey of 1,020 Florida high-school varsity basketball players, 33%
reported sustaining at least one oral-facial injury during a season. Of all basketball
injuries, 34% were oral-facial.
Using mouthguards reduces injuries. Before mandatory oral-facial protection in tote
(1962) 50% of all injuries in football were oral-facial. After required use of protection,
only 3% of football Injuries were oral-facial. It is estimated that more than 200,004
oral-facial injuries are prevented each year because of mandatory wear In football',
Properly fitted mouthguards reduce the rate of dental and jaw Injuries during sports.
Volunteer use of mouthguards in sports is rare and shows no signs of improving. 95%
of coaches said they believe mouthguards prevent oral injuries, but only 16% required ,
mouthguard use In sports other than football. Mouthguards help prevent Injuries a
should be used by all athletes that are in contact sports wtthout exception, includi
those wearing braces.
