All About Mouthguards!

Good morning,

Today we want to talk a little bit about something all athletes or people in high contact sports should consider wearing... mouthguards! "When it comes to protecting your mouth, a mouthguard is an essential piece of athletic gear that should be part of your standard equipment from an early age.

While collision and contact sports, such as boxing, are higher-risk sports for the mouth, any athlete may experience a dental injury in non-contact activities too, such as gymnastics and skating."

Mouthguards aren't just for patients who want to protect their braces or implants, and are equally as important for all of our patients who play athletic sports.

If you want to learn more about this invaluable piece of equipment, and how we can help you figure out which type of mouthguard is best for you... visit us today at: www.germantowndentalcare.com.
