Protect Your Beautiful Smile

Fall sporting activities are underway. Playing fall sports is lots of fun but can be a little dangerous. Our question for you: are you protecting your beautiful smile with a mouth guard?

Kemp Orthodontics

What is a mouth guard?
Mouth guards are used to help cushion a blow to the face and to minimize the risk of broken teeth and injuries to your lips, tongue, face or jaw. The mouth guards that Kemp Orthodontics supplies cover the upper and lower teeth, giving your mouth its greatest protection.

Here's a fact for you:
Sports-related injuries often end-up in the emergency room. The US Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports that more than 600,000 of these visits involve injury or damage to the teeth and mouth. This fact alone lets you know just how important it is to be protected by a mouth guard.

Types of dental injuries that can occur without a mouth guard:

  • Broken or chipped tooth.

  • Entire tooth knocked out from the root.

  • Tooth dispositioned in socket.


If you are involved in sporting activities, we ask that you contact Kemp Orthodontics for a specialized mouth guard that is designed to work and fit with your braces while providing you with the protection that you need.
