Most of the time dental damage can be prevented by wearing a good gum shield while practising sports, providing protection to your teeth and jaws. A gum shield can't always prevent damage totally, but in most cases it can dramatically diminish the extent of the damage. Opposing what many people think, not all gum shields are the same. The best protection is obtained with a custom made gum shield as recommended by experts. Ready made and 'boil and bite' mouthguards are not made to your mouth, do not fit exactly and therefore provide less protection. ---- Source: http://www.guardkit.com/en/toothinjury.asp
