How much sudden pressure can saline implants withstand?

Asked By:annue in Saskatchewan, SK

I am trying to decide between silicone and saline implants. I frequently ride horses and I'm worried that if I fall on my chest/ get kicked in the chest it would cause saline implants to rupture. Is this a possibility? Should I opt for silicone instead?
