Now that the kids are back to school and well and truly back into school and club sports activities, it’s time to think about protecting their teeth from injury.
A dentist-made mouthguard will avoid, or minimise, injuries like chips and fractures to teeth, knocked out teeth, fractures to the jaw and injuries to the soft tissues of the mouth.
Dentist made mouthguards are strongly recommended by the Australian Dental Association (ADA) because they are custom made to accurately fit your child’s mouth and they offer greater protection compared with off-the-shelf products.
A mouthguard is an important investment in your child’s health – if he or she has a dental injury, the pain and distress and the dental and/or hospital costs are likely to cost much more than the cost of a mouthguard.
At DBay Dental we make mouthguards in-house ensuring a quicker production time and stricter quality control. And we can make mouthguards in a great range of colours so they are fun to wear too!
