SPORTS INJURIES

In Dr. Nestor Cohenca and colleagues’ August JADA article, "The Incidence and Severity of Dental Trauma in Intercollegiate Athletics" ( JADA 2008;138[8]:1121–6 ), they did not include women’s softball.

I must assume that there is a reason for this omission, as women’s softball has a significant number of dental injuries as witnessed by the use of multiple types of guards and shields in the sport. I am curious to know what the reason for this omission is, especially when two of the researchers are teaching at a school with one of the world’s premier women’s softball programs.
