Spring is almost here, which means more kids will be playing outdoor sports. Mouthguards should be worn during all sports all year round. The bone that surrounds teeth in children is softer than the bone in adults, making them more susceptible to losing teeth during a traumatic impact. Mouthguards are mandatory for football & hockey but should also be worn for basketball, baseball, soccer, gymnastics, & karate, especially if you have braces. A form-fitted mouthguard made by a dental professional or an over-the-counter mouthguard from a sporting goods store are both effective. So remember to wear your mouthguard before playing, it only takes one second to lose a tooth!
