Did you know that 80% of all dental injuries affect at least one of the front teeth?  For kids who are active and play fall sports during the school year, it's important to wear mouth guards! 

Mouth guards are one of the best ways to protect tiny teeth, as well as your child's tongue and lips. They should be worn during any contact sport - whether soccer, football, hockey, etc.  Children should also wear helmets during any activity that involves speed or impact.  This will help protect their mouth and teeth.
