TRAUMA 🛑✋
A patient came in after a “non-contact” touch rugby game… but one accidental elbow to the face was all it took.
He had a mouthguard — just wasn’t wearing it.
🦷 Tooth displaced on impact
⏱️ Seen immediately
✅ Repositioned & splinted
4 weeks later, the tooth is stable and symptom-free… but the long-term outcome is still uncertain.
The message is simple:
👉 Wear your mouthguard — every time
👉 Custom-made = best protection
👉 Dental injuries = time critical
If trauma happens, call your dentist immediately.
Protect the smile you’ve got 💯
