Abstract
The National Alliance Football Rules Committee has made mandatory the wearing of mouth protectors by all foot ball players in high schools, junior col leges and colleges. The Cobb County, Georgia, Dental Society decided to pro vide custom-fitted mouth protectors for all high school football players in Cobb County. The members of the society vol unteered their time to take upper arch impressions of the more than 500 boys who take part in the organized football programs. A fee of $1 for each impres sion was charged to cover the cost of the materials used. Senior dental students from Emory University School of Den tistry volunteered to pour the impressions in stone. The dentists trimmed and out lined the models. The processing of the mouth protectors was made the responsi bility of the school personnel who were instructed in the procedures by members of the dental society. Through this pro gram, all the high school football players were able to obtain custom-made mouth protectors for the 1962 football season.
