April is National Facial Protection Month, a time to raise awareness about the importance of protecting your face and teeth during sports and other activities. At Crane & Seager Orthodontics in Fort Collins and Loveland, CO, we’re passionate about helping our patients maintain healthy and beautiful smiles. In this blog post, we’ll explore the importance of mouthguards, helmets, and other protective gear. 

 

 The Benefits of Mouthguards 

  

Mouthguards are essential protective gear for anyone who participates in sports or other high-impact activities. They can prevent chipped or broken teeth, jaw fractures, and other serious injuries. Mouthguards can also reduce the risk of concussions and other head injuries. At Crane & Seager Orthodontics, we offer custom-made mouthguards to ensure the best possible fit and protection for our patients. 

  

 The Importance of Helmets 

  

Helmets are another critical piece of protective gear for anyone who participates in sports or other activities that put the head at risk. A properly fitting helmet can prevent serious injuries such as skull fractures, brain damage, and concussions. It’s important to choose a helmet that is appropriate for the activity and fits well. 

  

 Other Protective Gear 

  

In addition to mouthguards and helmets, there are many other types of protective gear that can help prevent injuries. Shin guards, elbow pads, knee pads, and wrist guards can all help protect against fractures and other injuries. It’s important to choose the appropriate gear for the activity and make sure it fits properly.
