Protected Smile/ Sourire Protégé 2.17

My name if France Bourque and my passions are health promotion and lifestyle. I have been practicing dental hygiene for over 20 years and have myself played several sports at local, provincial and national levels. I have also coached soccer, softball, baseball and track and field. So needless to say that I have witnessed and personally suffered my share of sports injuries. So whatever your age or sport, let’s get out that protective gear to make sure you have a great season. Wait a minute, have you thought about protecting your teeth?
It has been estimated that the cost of this preventable injury is between $ 22-25 million /year. A 2005 report estimated the cost to treat a lost front tooth over a lifetime was between CDN$5,000 and CDN$20,000. Although there is still much research that needs to be done with relations to protective mouth guard and Traumatic Brain Injuries, the evidence is outstanding for its role in preventing dental and oro-facial injury. Protected Smile/Sourire Protégé provides superior lab-quality custom-fit mouth guards to athletes throughout the Moncton and surrounding areas. We are committed to safe play for all athletes by offering the highest level of Custom Dental Pressure Laminated Mouth guards which offer maximum comfort, protection and breathing quality. Parents will spend countless amount of money for stock or boil and bite mouth protectors which are inexpensive and can be bought at most sporting goods stores and department stores. However, little can be done to adjust their fit, they are bulky, make breathing and talking difficult, and they provide little or no protection. From prices ranging from 50$ to $85, we can make any child or adult, even in braces or mixed dentition, a custom fitted mouth guard. Furthermore, customers who have dental coverage for sports guard appliances can be reimbursed by sending the proper forms to their insurance carriers! If you want to check with your insurance if you have coverage for this type of dental appliance, it is 00634 (dental hygiene code).
Protected Smile values your busy schedule by offering a mobile, friendly, bilingual and professional service to your place of convenience might it be at your home, work or your place of play!

So don`t delay, ask your manager/coach to book a practice where I come to you, take the impressions, make the appliance and personally fit you with a protective mouthguard. Team not interested but you are? Not a problem. Call me to see my clinic schedule and we can book you in for your impressions. Let`s get used to them now as more and more sport associations are making them mandatory!

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely yours,

France Bourque RDH
