To make the team you've got to train hard and play hard. But all the excitement of winning is lost when players are needlessly-injured. Dr. Richard Simeone, senior attending oral sur­ geon at Washington Hospi­ tal Center explain? that many sports-related injuries are avoidable. " Many ardent sports players forget rule number one before leaving the locker room -- wearing adequate facial pro­ tection." Word to the wise - To prevent injuries such as knocked-out teeth, bro­ ken jaws and lacerations, the American Association or Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) sug­ gests that athletes always wear protective facial gear -- whether you are playing a friendly game or highly competitive sport. "what players must real­ ize is that wearing facial masks and mouth guards is as important to avoid inju­ ries as stretching their mus­ cles is," said Dr. Simeone, who has worked with the Washington Redskins foot­ ball team for nine years. "Protective facial gear should be part of their nor­ mal playing equipment." AAOMS members rec­ ommend use of custom-fit­ ted mouth guards, helmets and facial masks to avoid injury to mouths and faces such as knocked-out teeth, nasal fractures, upper and lower jaw fractures, and woundsf to the surrounding soft tissues.

Joy, Jr., professor and head of oral and maxillofa­ cial surgery at the Medical School of Georgia suggests the following treatment: • For knocked-out teeth, clean off the teeth that have been knocked out, and quickly place them in their sockets. If this is impossible, place teeth in a glass of ice water with a pinch of salt or milk until a specialist can be reached. • For an injured jaw, make a temporary splint, then with teeth together place a towel or bandage around the jaw tying it at the top of the head. • For facial bleeding, apply pressure directly on the wound. "In many cases, a knocked-out tooth can be salvaged if quick action is taken and these simple pro­ cedures followed," says Dr. Joy. The AAOMS advises that an oral and maxillofa­ cial surgeon should be seen when a dentofacial injury occurs. If a specialist is unavailable, go to a hospital emergency room as soon as possible. "Most emergency rooms have an oral and maxillofa­ cial surgeon on call at all times who is trained to rec­ ognize and treat all facial injuries -- some which might go unnoticed," explains Dr. Joy. Persons with protruding and decayed teeth, and those with partial and full dentures are at greater risk for suffering a sports-re­ lated dental or facial acci­ dent. See dentist first Before participating in any sports activity, the AAOm - recommends a dental c» Vup to have missing filh. 'oose den­ tures or Ul-fiiung partial dentures corrected. The best advice' to avoid dentofacial accidents is to use caution and protection. Many sports-related inju­ ries are preventable -- don't let one happen to you.
