I was just wondering how many of you guys wore a mouthguard. I don't, I find them extremely annoying. I just hope I don't regret it

im a keeper and one time i got my face smashed in and i had trauma in my lip and i had a few loose teeth after so after that i wear one..its not annoying cuz they mold to your mouth and you can still talk on the field..

mouth guards suck u cant talk very well

I don't, but I will if I ever lose any teeth during a game, maybe even not then. The worst thing that happened to me was two weeks ago was when I got knocked out. I'm still waiting to lose the pearly whites.

ha yea the same thing happened to me as american keep. i was playing out of the goal (im a keeper) and i was playing foward and ran right smack into the post and got a concussion. my mom thought i had died. but no no mouthguard for me.

I think I'd rather loose my teeth than wear thsoe things. They so uncomfortable. Im supposed to get one for Hockey but I refuse. Theres no danger of getting ones teeth knocked out in soccer anyway

I'd say you're more likely to be in a car accident on the way to the match than getting your teeth knocked out during it.

Yeah well I got five of my teeth chipped and I still refuse to wear one. My dentist was like "We can make special ones that mold exactly to your teeth and won't be uncomfortable." and I just told him that I would never wear one. Chipping my teeth did really suck but won't ever wear a mouthgard. I've have one moouth related injury on 14 years of playing soccer. That's not enough to get me to wear one.

Lets be honest.....this is Football not Rugby, nobody should and hardldy anybody wears Mouthguards in this sport

it's almost unanimous. No mouthgards have it

please post more than a smilie

I was supposed to wear one when I had braces, but I accidently left it in my shorts after practice and got melted in the dryer.

one of rugby if your lucky but no way for football (unless keeper)

You want to elaborate on how that happened?


I would never wear one, the only real threat is if someone kicks you mouth when your on the ground, if face gets hit by ball i would be more worried for my nose than teeth, and i usually shield my face w/ my arms anyways. And maybe when going for headers someone may elbow you.. but im careful.
