Why people argue about this
People often assume that a mouthguard is only necessary for protecting teeth in Para Jiu-Jitsu, when in reality, it's recommended based on AJP equipment standards because they can also prevent injuries like concussions and jaw fractures during grappling. The misconception stems from not fully understanding the comprehensive safety guidelines outlined in Section 2 of their equipment standards.
