| Sumario: | Mouth guards are safety equipment that aim to prevent trauma such as concussion, laceration, dislocation and dental losses in contact sports. The mouth guards made by dentists provide better comfort and safety in training, games and fights. This narrative review of bibliographic literature aims to guide dental surgeons about the correct techniques of confection of mouthguards, improving the self-esteem and self-confidence of the athlete with the dental intervention. The results of research indicate that dental surgeons should make them so that athletes feel comfortable using them, such as breathing, speech and swallowing. For athletes who have already suffered trauma of dental origin and have reestablished, the protector acts to be beneficial to avoid a new accident, in addition to increasing the confidence of the sportsman when carrying out his activities. There are still many doubts about the technique of making individualized mouthguards, but the mouthguards is fundamental for sportsmen, as they reduce the chance of dentoalveolar and maxillofacial trauma by up to 80%. |
