The Importance of Sports and Mouth Guards

December 16th, 2012

If you've got a kid, then you've got an athlete in the making.  As your pediatric dentist in Tucson, we encourage your kids to stay fit by participating in sports.  We also encourage that you protect your child's or teen's teeth by investing in a sport or mouth guard, especially for high contact sports.

While you can buy a mouth guard at your local drugstore, coming into your local dentist and having one custom designed protects greater protection.  Your child will also be more likely to wear a sports guard if it fits properly and looks nice, which we strive to do with every one we design.  We can sweeten the deal by adding team colors and other personal touches to encourage your child to wear it more often.

When a child learns to wear mouth guards at an early age, they’re more likely to become an integral part of their sports routine.  So get them started today!
