mouthguards

It's the time of year when weekends are consumed with football. Friday nights are for the local high school games. On Saturdays you watch your favorite college team, and Sundays are for watching the major league teams. Not to mention the pee wee league games that your kids have on the weekend and practice during the week. This is definitely a busy time of year. Football is a fun sport that people love to watch and cheer for. Along with all of the fun, the players put in alot of hard work and do their best for their team and fans. With all of the practice and game time, the chance for injury to a players mouth is very great. According to the National Youth Sports Foundation for Safety, athletes are sixty times more likely to sustain injury to the teeth when not wearing a mouthguard for protection. There is definitely a great need for mouthguards. If your child plays any sport, not just football, you should really talk to your dentist and have a mouthguard made for your child. The Acadamy for Sports Dentistry reports that the use of faceguards and mouthguards helps prevent an estimated 200,000 injuries in high school and college football eacg year alone. Suwanee Dental Care would love to get you or your child a mouthguard that will help give you some piece of mind while out on the field.
