When your child begins to participate in recreational activities and organized sports, injuries can occur. A properly-fitted athletic appliance is an important piece of gear that can help protect your child’s teeth and smile and should be used during any activity that could result in trauma to the face or mouth. The team at Children’s Dental Village can customize comfortable mouth guards designed to prevent injuries.
A night guard looks similar to an athletic appliance but is custom-made to fit over the teeth to protect the teeth from wear caused by the grinding of the teeth.
As we continue to adapt to the changing nature of Covid-19, our office routinely monitors the Community Level of Covid-19 as part of CDC public indoor guidance/safety protocols. Currently, our community level is LOW, which means masks are welcome but not required in our office. If you or your child are at severe risk for illness from Covid-19, we encourage you to wear a mask in all public indoor areas, per CDC guidelines. As we continue to monitor our local levels, we will require indoor masking in our office if our local level is upgraded to HIGH.
Children’s Dental Village team members will continue to adhere to Covid-19 safety protocols. The health and safety of our patients and families is our top priority and the clinical team will continue wearing all proper personal protective equipment. Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.
