The importance of mouth guards, from Dr. Sheila Birth


With the sweet Texas summer here for another six weeks, our staff at Birth-Stewart Orthodontics would like to take this time to remind our young athletes wearing braces to take care of both your mouth and appliances while participating in contact sports (and non-contact sports) this month. After all, we know this is a busy time of year sports-wise, whether kids are playing baseball in the park or getting ready for high school football.

Remember, only by using a mouth guard can kids with and without braces avoid serious sports injuries. So, the next time you're in for a visit at any of our convenient locations, we encourage you to ask us for a mouth guard, and we will provide one!

We hope you're enjoying your summer so far! Stop by our Facebook fan page and join our Pet Contest!
