The equipment of hockey players includes a mouth guard — a plastic cover placed on the teeth to protect them. According to athletes, even if they wear the guard, it doesn’t necessarily mean that by the end of the match, their smiles will be exactly as they were before. A famous incident happened in 2010 when Chicago hockey player, Duncan Keith, lost 7 teeth at once after he was hit with a puck. And these incidents happen quite often. Before the end of their careers, few players decide to get implants: if their jaws are injured, it will be much harder to fix the damage if they have implants.
