Prevention and Treatment of Oral Athletics Injuries

Nobody goes into sports with the idea of intentionally injuring him or herself, but even if not intentional, many injuries are preventable. Oral-facial injuries, those involving trauma to the mouth and face, can have significant negative functional, esthetic, and psychological effects both on children and adults.

Only recently, has greater attention focused on this critical but often overlooked segment of injuries. While oral-facial injuries are rarely life threatening, they can be debilitating and costly over the life of a person. In fact, it's estimated that over a quarter of dental-related injuries occur while playing sports.

This course is designed to explain the various sports-related dental injuries, discuss types of mouth guards utilized and the dental teams role in sports-related injuries and sports dentistry.
