I have braces must I wear a mouth guard when playing sports like soccer?
A mouth guard is an important to wear in order to protect your teeth from a sports releted accident. When you have braces it is even more important that you do wear a mouth guard. If you play any contact sports like football, hockey, soccer, volleyball any sport really that has the potential that you may get a blow in the face even without braces this will hurt. With braces and no guard there is a potential of sever damage to your mouth.
