When you’re playing a sport \u2013 whether it be football, basketball, baseball or hockey \u2013 your mind is on your game and your focus is on your competition. With victory weighing heavily on your mind, how much thought do you put into keeping your teeth safe from injury? At Hill Avenue Dental<\/a> in Superior, WI,<\/a> Drs. Clark and Clark<\/a> want to give you the best possible advantage out on the field, on the court, in the rink and anywhere else you enjoy recreational activities with athletic mouth guards<\/a>. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Benefits of Using a Mouth Guard<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
When you engage in any type of physical activity with others, the opportunity for accidental injury becomes more common. A wrong step, an error in technique or even an intentional shove can quickly lead to a forceful blow to the mouth or jaw. The soft tissues of the tongue, lips and gums can be seriously injured in an instant, whether by the force of the opposing object or the teeth in your own mouth. <\/span>Mouth guards <\/b><\/span>allow athletes to continue playing the sports that they love without the worry of a knocked out tooth, lacerated tongue or deeply cut gums. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Many athletes avoid <\/span>mouth guards<\/b><\/span>because they think such a device will feel uncomfortable or somehow impede their performance. On the contrary, <\/span>athletic mouth guards <\/b><\/span>from <\/span>Hill Avenue Dental <\/b><\/span>are made of only the highest quality materials and are custom-fitted to your teeth and palate. This means that you’ll always be comfortable even as you’re defending your teeth and gums from serious injury. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
