Give Your Teeth and Braces a Sporting Chance: Protect Your Mouth During Sports Activities

DID YOU KNOW. . .

ARCH Orthodontics will provide a mouth guard for any patient in active treatment who’s involved in team sports.

Now that Spring is almost here, if you play baseball, soccer, lacrosse or other sports, it’s important that you consult with us regarding special precautions – we definitely recommend wearing a mouth guard.

Because your teeth are moving, do not use mouth guards that custom form to your teeth! These will resist progress and the tooth movement we are trying to achieve.

In case of any accident involving the face, check your mouth and the appliances and get in touch with us immediately. If teeth are loosened or the appliances damaged, please get in touch with us immediately to schedule an appointment ASAP with ARCH.

Whether you wear braces or not, a mouth guard and other forms of facial protection can help you avoid serious injuries. As always, if you have questions, please give us a call.
