Consent and release to treatment
I am aware that a mouthguard is a hard piece of plastic which is designed to fit over the top teeth and helps to protect teeth. It is designed to attempt to reduce the risk of dental injuries and trauma during athletic activity. It is not guaranteed to prevent or alleviate injury or trauma. Mouthguards can be uncomfortable and may cause gagging. It should be routinely checked for wear and/breakage and replaced as required.
