SPORTS/MOUTH GUARDS:
August 26, 2010 @ 10:48 AM — by Frederick Prehn, D.D.S.
It is sad when I see a patient like I just saw this morning who came in with his front four teeth loose. He was playing basketball and wasn’t wearing his sport’s mouth guard. If you participate in any contact sport (football, basketball, or any sport where you risk getting an elbow to the mouth), please protect your oral cavity and have a sports mouth guard made. There are many different kinds available and you “get what you pay for”. The more expensive ones do a much better job but anything is better than nothing. If you play sports, take care of your teeth!
