Sports mouth guards are typically worn on top of the upper teeth and can protect individuals from injuries such as broken teeth, cut lips, and other oral wounds. Frequently, they’re worn in sports such as football, hockey, football, baseball, motorbiking, soccer, mountain biking, and skateboarding. They are worn by both children and adults, as sports injuries can happen at any age.
