Facial Protection Month at Dr. Ruff’s office

With spring here, many children, teens and adults will once again pick up the ball, bring the bat out of seasonal retirement, and lace up their cleats to hit the fields for the return of spring sports! April is National Facial Protection Month, and during this time, we urge our young athletes to play it safe when out on the field. According to the National Youth Sports Safety Foundation, children, high-school athletes and adults will have more than 5,000,000 teeth knocked out in sporting events this year.

This month at Dr. Charles Ruff’s office, you could win a custom mouth guard! Simply email us a photo of you playing your sport and we will share that photo on our Facebook page. You will then be entered into that week’s drawing for a mouth guard! You can send us a photo each week of April for your chance to win.

Email your photos to darlene@smiles4ME.com to get started. Good luck! This contest ends April 30, 2012 so don’t delay in sending us your entries.

*Please note that patients in braces are not eligible to win a custom mouth guard. By emailing us your photos, you are giving us permission to share them on our social networks.

We will also be offering ½ price custom mouth guards to all patients ($75 each) this month only! Facial protection is important to us, and we want all of our great athletes to have a mouth guard.
