A mouth guard is a protective device worn over the teeth to prevent injury or damage. It's commonly used in sports like basketball, football, and hockey to shield against impacts, bites, and collisions. Mouth guards can also be prescribed for medical conditions such as bruxism (teeth grinding) or TMJ disorders to reduce strain on jaw muscles and protect the teeth from excessive wear.
