mouthguard, the game official will require that the player be replaced at the next dead ball whistle. The removed player may not re-enter until after the clock has started and a substitution opportunity occurs."

Any other states have this requirement?

In Kentucky, we call them toothguards and no, we don't require them to be worn during basketball games due to the low probability that the tooth will be hit.
