WHY YOUR BASKETBALL PLAYER NEEDS TO WEAR A MOUTHGUARD?
Basketball may not be considered a high-contact sport, but if you’ve seen your athlete play, you probably know that doesn’t reflect the reality of the sport. There are all sorts of ways your kid could be injured during a basketball game. In fact, nearly one-third of childhood injuries happen to be related to participation in organized sports including basketball. That’s why your basketball player should wear a high-quality, thin mouthguard for basketball, like the Game On mouthguard.
Around 30 million children and teens take part in organized sports each year in the United States, and more than 3.5 million of them are injured each year. The majority of basketball injuries are strains and sprains, but there are plenty of dental injuries to go around. A ball can hit your youth in the face and knock a tooth loose or shove a tooth deeper into their gums, either of which can be extremely painful. It’s also possible for your athlete to get hit in the face with a stray elbow or even take a spill that causes their face to hit the court
The danger of dental injuries only increases if your athlete wears traditional metal braces. When they take a blow to the face, a wire can get knocked loose and poke through the soft tissue in their mouth—the cheeks, lips, gums, or tongue. In addition, the metal brackets can cause lacerations to soft tissue that are much worse than they would be without braces. Not only can your child sustain a painful injury, but their orthodontic gear can get damaged—which can be painful and expensive, as well as setting back their orthodontic schedule.
All of this doesn’t mean that you should discourage your youth from playing basketball. There are too many benefits to being involved in organized sports to let these potential injuries stand in the way of their enjoying the sport, especially when a strong, thin mouthguard for basketball can mitigate a lot of the damage that could be caused in an accident. Continue reading to learn some of the benefits of participating in basketball (or any organized sport) and to learn how the Game On basketball mouthguard can help you feel more comfortable allowing your student to play on their school or local team.
