Sports help kids stay healthy, and mouth guards help smiles stay healthy. Mouthguards are vital for lessening the impact to the face or mouth and reducing the risk of broken teeth. When you consider that children between the ages of 5 and 14 account for almost 40% of all sports-related injuries, we can easily see why taking every precaution, especially wearing mouth guards, is so important. If you’re interested in a mouthguard for your child or yourself, please contact us today.
