Dental Risk Swimming Pools Have.
Accident can happen around or in swimming pools. During the summer months pool accidents are a main cause of dental emergencies. Be careful when swimming underwater: Children will often times close their eyes while swimming underwater. This can lead to them hitting the hard ledge of the pool. Make sure that children around the pool do not run. Cement and ceramic pool surfaces become slippery when wet and can send a child headfirst onto the ground, often causing chipped or displaced teeth. Practice pool safety every time with your kids in order avoid these types of pool accidents.
