Hi All,

Once again this season Dr. Churchill is offering Custom made Mouth Guards free as a community service to any player in our program. I cannot stress the importance of using mouth guards to protect against concussions. If your player is baulking at wearing a mouth guard because it doesn’t fit correctly, this may be for you.

You should also be aware that league and US Lacrosse rules require all players to wear mouth guards. A change to the rule this year requires all mouth guards to be colored – so that officials can easily determine whether a player does, in fact, have a mouth guard in place.

I have talked to one parent who took advantage of this last year and she was very pleased with the service that she received.

My name is Dr. Katherine Churchill and I am a dentist in Exeter.  I have just recently started a youth mouth guard community service program that has been approved by the Exeter Parks and Recreation department.  I know that the Exeter Lacrosse program is an independent organization and would like to invite your program's athletes to join as well.  The program provides one free custom fit mouth guard to each athlete age 5-18 per year.  Additional mouth guards and or duplicates are $10 each within the same year.   To have a custom mouth guard made, a quick impression of their upper teeth takes approx. 5 minutes.  We make the mouth guards in our office so turn around is fairly quick.  We can even make mouth guards that can be attached directly to helmets as well.  Please let me know if you would like to participate in this program.   You can call me any questions at my office or discuss details at: (603) 772-3351 (M-Th 8am- 5pm).  Thank you for your time.  I hope to hear from you soon.
