The February NATA News features an injury infographic handout on dental injury, based on the new NATA position statement “Preventing and Managing Sports-Related Dental and Oral Injuries.” Approximately 39 percent of dental injuries in the United States are sports related, and while the National Federation of State High School Associations and National Collegiate Athletic Associated require mouthguards for some sports, all athletes are at risk. This infographic handout can be downloaded and handed out to educate members of your community about dental injury as well as mouthguard care tips.
Don’t forget to check out NATA’s other infographic resources in its Injury Infographic Handout Library.
