You do everything you can to protect your children from harm, especially when they’re involved in sports and other recreational activities. You buy helmets, pads, and other high-performance equipment, but what about protecting your little one’s teeth? At Hill Avenue Dental, Dr. Doug Clark, Jr. and Dr. H. Douglas Clark, III offer an extensive selection of preventive dentistry services to the members of our Superior, WI community and the surrounding areas, including custom athletic mouthguards.
Why Choose a Custom Athletic Mouthguard?
While it is true that athletic mouthguards of all varieties can be found on the shelves of your nearest sporting goods store, these generic appliances simply cannot provide the level of protection your child needs out on the playing field. According to the National Youth Sports Foundation for the Prevention of Athletic Injuries, injuries to the teeth and mouth are the most common type of orofacial damage experienced by children who play sports.
Fortunately, there is a way to mitigate these statistics. The American Dental Association (ADA) estimates that more than 200,000 orofacial injuries are prevented each year with custom athletic mouthguards. These comfortable, durable oral appliances have been proven effective in the prevention of numerous common injuries, including avulsed (knocked out) teeth, soft tissue injuries, lacerations to the gums, broken jaws, and even concussions. Our doctors are sincerely concerned with your child’s oral health and comfort, and our wide range of preventive dentistry solutions is designed with those factors in mind.
