Sadly, that is not the case. In fact, adding the right safety equipment such as mouthguards, will be beneficial for both the athletes’ health and his performance.

When playing football, the chances of suffering from a concussion, broken tooth, broken rib or head ache are very high. Because of the high risks, many professional sport leagues have recommend the use of mouthguards to every player and especially to wide receivers given their fast pace of play.
