How to Prevent Common Dental Emergencies

Dental emergencies often happen after regular business hours. Preventing injuries to the teeth and mouth will ensure your smile remains happy and healthy for a lifetime.

Custom mouth guards provide cushioning and protection for athletes’ teeth, jaws, gums, and cheeks. When opening packaging or tearing tape, use scissors rather than your teeth. Never chew hard items such as ice, popcorn kernels, or hard candy.
