There are many reasons to wear a rugby mouthguard. It helps protect the teeth from chipping and other percussive damage. It can also keep you from biting your tongue.
A lesser known but equally important reason is that a rugby mouthguard is helpful for reducing shock associated with head trauma. Because of this, rugby mouth pieces can be very effective at preventing concussions and reducing other percussive damage to the head.
And don’t think you can or will avoid head contact while playing a rugby match or during a rugby training session as according to the National Institute of Dental Research (NIDR), one in 10 athletes -- including weekend types -- will get whacked in the face or mouth at some point.

The American Dental Association (ADA) also recommends wearing a rugby mouthguard for BOTH rugby training and rugby matches.
