Injury Prevention
The staff at University Associates in Dentistry aims to stop sports-related injuries before they happen.

When on the ice, an elbow, stick, or puck to the mouth can prove disastrous for a hockey player. In addition to considerable pain, a sports injury can also result in lost teeth and extensive soft tissue damage. When players wear their customized mouth guards, they can significantly reduce their risk of mouth injury . University Associates in Dentistry creates specially designed mouth guards that are made to perfectly fit each individual athlete under our care.
