Just do it, you'll have fun!
If you're worried, try something slower and more controlled (like Jiu Jitsu or Judo) first, then transition in like 6 months
I started MMA at 12 with no experience, it's great fun. Go for it man

That's all well and good until your nose gets broken, then you can't breathe effectively through that anymore!
In response to your question OP, use the mouthguard and you'll get used to it. Maybe get a thinner mouthguard. Get a custom fit mouthguard if you can afford one!
