National
Facial Protection Month brings awareness to the head, mouth and facial
injuries that often result from sports-related accidents each spring. With outdoor spring sports just around the
corner, we want to remind parents and kids to play safely. We recommend that all kids who play contact
sports wear mouth guards to keep their faces protected.
How do you know if your kid needs a mouth
guard?
Kids should wear mouth
guards when playing:
- Hockey
- Basketball
- Soccer
- Football
- Gymnastics
- Baseball
- Tennis
By wearing a mouth guard, you
reduce the risk of knocking out teeth or breaking your jaw. If your child plays a sport, contact Pediatric Dentistry of Garden
City & Glen Cove for more information on mouth guards and how they can
protect your child’s smile. Call
516-222-5100 to contact
our Garden City office or 516-759-7000 to contact our Glen Cove office.
