A custom fit mouthguard from a dentist is about $75 (here in Canada) and I greatly reccomend them.
Somtimes the injury is not to the teeth but from them. One of my fighters this year fought without a guard (accidentally left it behind and it was a custom fit jobby). She took a kick to the face and one of her teeth went right through her lip fully piercing it. She was ahead until then, but that changed the momentum of the fight. She didn't show pain or flinch (I am amazed, I would have hit the ground from it) so no wazari called, but a mouthguard would have prevented this.
