Oral health status, on-ice and off-ice test performance, and match performance in elite male ice hockey players: a pilot study
In the framework of this study, dental health and injury prevention did not correlate with each other. Overall, the dental health of the German ice hockey sample examined could be rated above comparable averages. The test and match data once again prove the IHCT to be a suitable assessment tool.
