A broken or lost front tooth is heart-breaking for any parent or child. It can cause physical and psychological trauma, as well as years of ongoing dental treatment. It is vital to ensure your child is fully protected.
At Surbiton Dental, we believe that all children should be wearing a sports mouthguard to protect their teeth if they are participating in any sport where they may be at risk.
Professional-grade custom fit mouthguards are the option for parents who want to ensure their children have the highest levels of protection and comfort.
Although there are many ‘shop brought’ mouthguard options available, these are made of cheaper, less durable materials and, unfortunately, simply don’t offer the same level of protection.
For more information, please visit the dental trauma UK website who advise a ‘No mouthguard, no play’ policy. www.dentaltrauma.co.uk/Public/Mouthguards.aspx
If your child does experience dental trauma, we are here to help, the first few minutes after the injury can be critical so please don’t hesitate to call us for advice and to arrange an emergency appointment for your child.
