Are You Protected with a Mouth Guard?

As National Facial Protection Month approaches it’s important to play it safe. Whether you’re a casual player on an office team, an amateur athlete, or a professional, wearing a mouth guard is imperative.

Protect Yourself from Harm

At Dr. George Dental, located in Delray Beach, the team emphasizes the importance of mouth guards in preventing dental injuries.

In the event of a blow to the head, a properly fitted mouth guard can greatly reduce the risk of tooth loss, jaw fractures, and other serious dental injuries. All of these will require a trip to the ER and more money out of pocket.

Mouth guards are especially important for contact sports such as football, basketball, and hockey. In addition any physical activity where there is a risk of dental injury. Even non-contact sports like gymnastics, golf and skateboarding can pose a threat to your teeth and gums.

Custom-Fitted Mouth guards for Maximum Protection

While store-bought mouth guards are available, they often do not provide sufficient protection or comfort.

Dr. George Sanchez offers custom-fitted mouth guards that are designed to fit your teeth perfectly. This provides you with maximum protection and comfort during play.

The dental professionals from Dr. George Dental will take impressions of your teeth to create a customized mouth protector that is tailored to your unique dental structure. This ensures that it fits snugly and securely without interfering with speech or breathing.

Moreover, custom-fitted mouth guards from Dr. George Dental can last longer than store-bought options, and can be adjusted or repaired as needed.

Preventing Dental Injuries with Proper Protection

National Facial Protection Month serves as a reminder of the importance of dental safety when playing sports. Wearing a mouth guard is just one of the ways you can protect your teeth and gums from injury.

Dr. George Dental recommends wearing helmets, face shields, and other protective gear as appropriate for your sport.

Additionally, practicing good oral hygiene and visiting Dr. George and his team for dental check-ups and professional cleanings can help detect and prevent potential dental issues before they become more serious.

It’s National Facial Protection Awareness Month

It’s that time of the year when everyone in Delray Beach is enjoying the weather. With that being said it is also National Facial Protection Awareness Month.

Dr. George Dental and his team are helping spread the word about National Facial Protection month.

During April, and the rest of the warmer months, there is an increase in head and mouth injuries as people enjoy the great outdoors.

Be Aware All Year

Although it’s important to remain diligent year round, April is the first month of spring. During spring and summer there are thousands of head and mouth injuries.

This makes April the perfect time to remind people how important head and facial protection is. It’s also the perfect time for National Facial Protection Awareness month.

The annual event is sponsored by the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, the American Association of Orthodontists, the American Academy or Pediatric Dentistry, the American Dental Association and the Academy for Sports Dentistry.

National Facial Protection Month is held each year. This event is the time to remind coaches, athletes, parents and caregivers the importance of facial protection.

National Facial Protection Awareness

Wearing a helmet will save your life, but did you know that adding a custom made mouth guard to the uniform could save your tooth or jaw?

According to your Delray Beach family dentist hundreds of trips to the emergency room could be prevented had a mouth guard been included in the picture.

Types of Mouth Protection

Dr. George explains there are three types of mouth guards available. While all three devices provide some protection and are better than nothing, a custom made mouth guard is at the top of the list when it comes to protection.

A mouth guard that fits is more likely to be worn because custom made mouth guards are made from an impression of your mouth. In addition they fit like a glove.

The other two types of mouth protectors will get the job done but they aren’t comfortable. In fact, because standard and even boil and bite mouth guards aren’t custom made they tend to be the opposite. Some players say they can’t even breathe when wearing one.

National Facial Protection Awareness Custom Made 

Your family dentist in Delray Beach is equipped to supply you and your entire family with custom made mouth guards for sports. It really is the best way to keep everyone safe from a flying ball or bat.
