Harbour City Dental Hygiene celebrated National Dental Hygienists Week™/Oral Health Month by providing custom fitted mouth guards for the spring football program at John Barsby Community School in Nanaimo, BC.
Over 60 students between the ages of 14 and 18 had impressions made by the hygienists from Harbour City Dental Hygiene and volunteers from the VIU Dental Hygiene Program during National Dental Hygienists Week™. The mouth guards were fabricated and ready for the first training camp on April 21st.
The students were eager to learn how the mouth guards protect their teeth, gums and jaws in sports related injuries. They gained an understanding of how important it is to wear their mouth guard during practice and non-competitive play as well as official games.
