Ortho Technology Has Teamed Up with the AAO to Protect Smiles
For Immediate Release:
Ortho Technology is a rapidly growing leader in the orthodontic supply market. Since 1991 Ortho Technology has offered innovative and unique products that orthodontic professionals worldwide have come to trust. Ortho Technology is committed as a company to provide practices with the very best products possible, while delivering the utmost in customer service.
To “play it safe” during sport practice and competition, the American Association of Orthodontists encourages the use of mouthguards and protective gear. Football-great Emmitt Smith and his wife, Pat Smith, serve as spokespersons for the AAO to further promote safety through their Sport Safety and Moms For Mouth Guards campaigns.
Ortho Technology understands the importance of mouthguard use during sports. To support this effort, Ortho Technology has pledged to donate ULTRA-GUARD All-Sport Mouthguards to the National Alliance of Youth Sports (NAYS), America’s leading advocate for positive and safe sports for children since 1981. Ortho Technology’s mouthguards will be delivered to youth sport programs across the country to children who would otherwise not be able to afford them.
“We feel fortunate to be able to give to communities nationwide and help protect young athletes by providing mouthguards to those in need,” said Paul Wilkens, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Product Development at Ortho Technology.
"The AAO is delighted to have Ortho Technology’s support for our Moms For Mouth Guards campaign,” said Lee W. Graber, D.D.S., M.S., M.S., Ph.D., president of the American Association of Orthodontists. “Ortho Technology’s generous donation of mouth guards for children in need will go a long way in helping those youngsters protect themselves from injuries to the teeth, face and head, and may eliminate some injuries altogether."
