Mouth Guards
Every person - regardless of age, playing sports that involve contact or the possibility of falling should wear a mouthguard.
It is estimated by the National Youth Sports Foundation that more than 5 million teeth will be knocked out in sporting activities this year. In fact, dental injuries are the most common type of oral facial injury sustained in sports.
You may be familiar with the type of mouthguard that's formed by boiling and biting - but you may not know that by using "boil and bites" you're only getting little or no real protection. That's because "boil and bites" are formed using low temperatures and as you bite down, most of the material between your teeth is displaced. Which is where the cushioning is needed most.
Only a properly custom created mouthguard can give you the protection your teeth deserve.
