The Dangers of Generic Childhood Mouthguards
A dentist will always recommend that your child wear a mouthguard when participating in physical sports. These appliances will help to protect the teeth and they are extremely effective. However, it is wise to avoid generic brands.
What are three potential pitfalls of a generic mouthguard?
– The unit might not fit properly within the mouth.
– The mouthguard could cause chafing and scraping.
– It may be slightly difficult for the child to breathe properly.
”These mouthguards have the potential to hinder your child’s breathing.”
