    Yes they do.

    Soccer players usually do not wear gumshields unlike rugby players so a blow on the jaw will be trasmitted to the brain more easily. Do American football players wear gumshields?

    Yes, they are called mouth guards here though.

    Gum shield.

    Get them made to measure by your friendly local dentist, the shop-bought gumshields don't fit so well.
