Mouth guards make a difference

Mouth guard donations
Summer sports and activities are in full swing, from team games like baseball and soccer to solo activities like cycling or skateboarding. No matter how you have fun under the sun, you’ll want to protect your teeth from injury — and there’s no better way to do that than by wearing a mouth guard.
Whether you’re playing contact sports or rollerblading, a single fall or collision can damage a tooth or cut your tongue or cheek. And these injuries happen more than they need to, especially in youth sports leagues.
