The role of mouthguards in the prevention of oro-facial trauma
The role of a sports mouthguard has been well established as one of protecting teeth from trauma particularly during contact sports. The aim of this study is to review the roles of sports mouthguard at both an elite and recreational level. From the history of the first mouthguards, to a modern custom-made mouthguard, the role […]
A pilot study evaluating early psychosocial risk and brain health outcomes in Veterans with mild TBI
The goal of this pilot study was to describe the relationship between early psychosocial risk (i.e., adverse childhood experiences, neighborhood disadvantage, multiple relocations) and brain health outcomes among Veterans with mild TBI. Veterans (N = 76) with mild TBI participated at an outpatient VA. This cross-sectional study involved the collection and analysis of retrospective self-report […]
Chronic traumatic encephalopathy
Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by repetitive head impacts from contact sports, physical violence, and other causes. The urgency of the problem is due to the high incidence of pathology, not only in adults, but, most importantly, in the pediatric population. The paper presents a review of the literature in databases […]
