April is National Facial Protection Month! From Memorial Smiles

In honor of April, or National Facial Protection Month, our staff at Memorial Smiles thought we'd share a helpful video - courtesy of our friends at the American Association of Orthodontists - about keeping your mouth safe this spring. With spring here, many children, teens and adults in Houston will once again pick up the ball, bring the bat out of seasonal retirement, and lace up their cleats to hit the fields for the return of spring sports! Still, kids should be well-aware of the risks to their precious pearly whites.

We hope the above video helps. Drs. Magness will tell you protective gear is vital for anyone engaging in tooth or mouth-threatening activities. If you have any further questions about any of these tips, please contact our staff at Memorial Smiles. Stay safe and have fun on the field!
