But as most team sports are relatively aggressive, it\u2019s important for young athletes to practice safety, especially as it pertains to oral injuries, with hockey players being an obvious example of what can happen to teeth if they are not properly protected,\u201d says Dr. Janice Mummery, founder of Princeview Dental. \u201cWhat\u2019s important for young athletes to remember is that there are ways to protect themselves if they hope to keep all their teeth and avoid any emergency dental procedures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Dr. Mummery, some very simple tips can make a big difference when it comes to preventing oral injuries. \u201cThe first tip is to always wear a mouth guard, no matter what sport is being played,\u201d says Dr. Mummery. With sports like hockey and basketball, there\u2019s always the risk of getting hit with elbows, shoulders, or even the puck or basketball, so keeping the mouth guard in is vital to preventing oral injuries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnother simple step athletes can take to prevent oral injuries is to simply keep their head up,\u201d she adds. \u201cIt\u2019s something coaches teach in almost every sport, but not all athletes understand the significance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy players keeping their heads up and just being more aware on the floor, field, or ice, they could actually prevent so many more injuries not only to their mouth, but overall injuries in general,\u201d Dr. Mummery concludes. \u201cInjuries are a part of sports, however, so if they do occur, it\u2019s important to find a dental office like Princeview Dental that is equipped for all emergency dental services and emergency dental procedures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 1994, Princeview Dental is a trusted dental clinic in Etobicoke.
