Mouthguards

A few people have asked where to get mouthguards.  This should get you started in your search for what you need.

Mouthguards are made for youth and adults.  Both sizes have types that accommodate braces.  Unfortunatly, the age where the split happens is 11 or 12, so that will make it tough to know which to buy for several of the kids in the older group.  The U10 crowd will all be fine with the youth.  Some 11 and 12 year olds will be right on the cusp between the two sizes and find the adults mouthguard too big.  If your child gags, the mouthguard is too big, so get a youth size.  If you are not sure, get the adult.  If the adult size is too big, hold on to it for when your child grows a bit and get a youth size.

Amazon has a large selection or you can take a drive up to Dick's Sporting Good in Buckhead if you want to compare them in person.
