The Best Kids’ Sports Mouthguard

Do you have a child playing in a school basketball team? Or maybe they prefer lacrosse. Is baseball or softball their game? Whatever sport your youth is playing, they can benefit from the use of a quality kids’ sports mouthguard like the Game On mouthguard, which is available in youth and adult sizes so your athlete doesn’t have to change their mouthguard brand as they grow. 

Around 30 million kids play organized sports each year in the United States, and more than 3.5 million of them will experience sports injuries. The most common of injuries are sprains and strains, but there is no shortage of dental injuries in any type of organized sport your child may participate in. You probably aren’t surprised to learn that high-impact sports like football, hockey, and lacrosse cause the most injuries. But that doesn’t mean other sports don’t also require mouthguards. Even a snowboarder or skateboarder can prevent painful dental injuries by wearing a kids’ sports mouthguard.

There are different types of dental injuries your young athlete can suffer from. First, a stick or ball to the face can lead to a chipped, loose, or even knocked-out tooth. Similarly, a blow to the face can lead to a tooth or teeth being shoved up into their gums, which can be even more painful. In addition, a blow to the face can cause lacerations due to your child’s teeth cutting into their lips, cheeks, and gums. This is especially a danger for youth who wear traditional metal braces. 

As a parent, it’s your job to keep your child safe. That means you need to make sure they’re wearing their kids’ sports mouthguard at every game and practice. If their team doesn’t require mouthguard use, it’s up to you to make sure your kid has the protection they need. Mouthguards have been shown to reduce the instances and severity of dental injuries in sports incidents.

This doesn’t mean you should avoid allowing your kid to participate in sports. In fact, there are a number of benefits gained through sports. Continue reading to learn some of these benefits, and to learn how the Game On kids’ sports mouthguard helps protect your youth’s teeth, cheeks, and gums from damage during play.
