Preparing Your Child's Teeth for Fall Sports

August 17th, 2017

It's back to school time, and with it, a host of after school activities.  Your child may be enrolled in a sports program.  Here are some tips for protecting your child's teeth as they become active this fall:

  • If the sport is high impact, you may want to consider a custom mouth guard for your child.  Custom mouth guards protect your child's teeth in case of injury and are more comfortable to wear than store bought ones.
  • Know what to do in case of a dental emergency.  Our kids dentist website has a list of what to do in case of dental emergencies.
  • Have your pediatric dentist's number on your phone.  Northwest Children's Dentistry's phone number is (520) 544-8522 if you have any questions or concerns, no matter what time of day.

As your child's pediatric dentist in Tucson, we want to take care of all your children's dental needs.  If you have any questions, feel free to call us at (520) 544-8522.
