Hey I'm new to boxing. Me and my friends want to do some casual boxing, mostly just for the workout, we'll never enter competitions. We were thinking we would wear boxing headgear / helmets to try and keep from breaking our noses and jaws and stuff when we are sparring.
I have read that if you box you should get a dentist's impression of your teeth for your mouth guard. Is this still true if we wear a helmet or will that protect enough to let us use a cheaper mouth guard?
Also do you still get broken noses when you wear the helmet?
