Answer 1

go to www.ada.org and look up local colleges that teach dental hygiene. Then call the school and ask if they have a public dental clinic. Go there and have a SPORTS mouthguard made and wear that while you run. You can get sports guards at a regular dentist office but they cost 200 dollars and up. At a dental hygiene school clinic they cost 20 to 40 dollars only!
