TY - JOUR PY - 1991// TI - Prevention of orodental injuries in athletic children: let us play! JO - Pediatrie A1 - Jonesco-Benaiche, N. A1 - Jasmin, J. R. SP - 739 EP - 742 VL - 46 IS - 11 N2 - Prevention of traumatic tooth injuries during sports practice in children who are particularly at risk due to their dental and maxillary morphology is important when establishing a certificate of aptitude to sport. In some children this may provide an occasion to propose an orthodontal correction for dental protrusion. In any case, fitted protective mouth-pieces made by a competent dental surgeon should be recommended. They are preferable to the commonly available gum shields, which are not secure enough.
