![Mouthguards and concussion in rider's back in the spotlight](https://cdn.magzter.com/1387285906/1712138993/articles/HAv-T-Tbj1712226140438/MOUTHGUARDS-AND-CONCUSSION-IN-RIDERS-BACK-IN-THE-SPOTLIGHT.jpg)
MOUTHGUARDS, and how they might help in preventing concussion, are back in the spotlight, after research and developments in other sports.
A Canadian youth icehockey study, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine in 2023, found those wearing mouthguards had a 28% lower concussion rate and 57% lower odds of concussion than non-wearers.
World Rugby is now recommending all players wear mouthguards, following these findings. It has also integrated smart mouthguard technology into head-injury assessments, so pitch-side experts can monitor impact data collected by sensors inside gumshields.
In February, George Turner was the first player to be removed from a game after his mouthguard sensor reported an impact that could have caused a concussion during a Six Nations match. He returned to play after assessment.
British Team Chasing (BTC) is “strongly” recommending all riders wear mouthguards.
