April marks National Facial Protection Month!


April, also known as National Facial Protection Month, is upon us, and for Dr. Hallman and our staff at Hallman Orthodontics that only means one thing: it’s once again time to remind our dear patients to protect their faces and pearly whites. Above is a helpful video with helpful tips from our friends at the AAO about staying safe on the ball field this spring. 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.

That's why we're doing our part to spread the word on facial injuries! If you have any further questions about any of the tips offered in the video, please contact our staff at Hallman Orthodontics, and we’ll try to answer any question you may have. And remember to have fun and stay safe!
