Our friends at the American Association of Orthodontists set the record straight (no pun intended) and have provided some information that sheds some light on the myths and facts of orthodontics. We encourage you to check them out today!

If you have any questions about orthodontics or your treatment here at Gerald Ginsberg, DDS, feel free to give us a call.

The importance of wearing a mouth guard when playing sports

At Gerald Ginsberg DDS we know how important it is to protect your face while playing sports. Last week, Dr. Ginsberg discussed the importance of protecting your teeth from sports related injuries while participating in fall sports, such as football and soccer. Today, we wanted to share with you this great video that was produced by the American Association of Orthodontists for the Moms for Mouth Guards Pledge. The Moms for Mouth Guards Pledge is a way for moms nationwide to make a commitment to protecting their child's smile from facial injuries.

As always, feel free to give us a call if you have any questions about mouth guards, or if you would like to schedule your next appointment with our office.

Dr. Ginsberg, supporting Moms for Mouth Guards

Hey, Moms! Have you signed the Moms for Mouth Guards Pledge?

Here at Dr. Ginsberg's office, we care about your pearly whites, and we want to help keep you protected from sports injuries that can be damaging to your beautiful smile. As a way of ensuring that children are using proper facial protection equipment, our friends at the American Association of Orthodontics have introduced the Moms for Mouth Guards Pledge.

Dr. Ginsberg will tell you that mouth guards are vital to protecting your teeth from sports related injuries while participating in sports, such as football, soccer, baseball, hockey and basketball, just to name a few. The Moms for Mouth Guards Pledge is a way for moms nationwide to make a commitment to protecting their children’s smile from facial injuries.

We’ve discussed the importance of using facial protection in the past. Today, we thought we’d invite moms to take action by visiting the Moms for Mouth Guards website and taking the Moms for Mouth Guards Pledge.

Have a safe week everyone!
