I personally would like to see the NFHSA mandate that ALL wrestlers wear a mouthpiece. Although this article doesn't mention this a possible, theoretical method of prevention there have been many published claims.

To me it is a no brainer. If there is to be some mandate requiring the use of a mouthpiece it should be applied to 100% of the wrestlers. There is obviously some dental protection and the possibility of reducing concussion risk with NO downside to risk to using an appliance. Seems simple to me.
