I just got braces on my teeth and want to go mountain biking but...?

I am hitting tooth on tooth and tooth on bracket. Is there a device like a mouth guard I can wear to minimize the possibility of pain???

Go to your local sports shop..or sporting goods section of the departments store.

They should have mouthguards for a lot less than a dentist will charge you, and they'll do the same job for you (sorry, Docs)

If you get the type that you boil and then bite, it'll give you a good fit. I would put wax on the braces first (you can get the wax at the drugstore) so your braces don't get caught up in the mouthguard while its forming.
