SILSDEN family company DB Orthodontics which manufactures and sells orthodontic products to 76 countries worldwide has started to work with Opro, another UK based company, which manufactures mouthguards to protect teeth while playing sport.

The mouthguards were created by a dentist who then started his own company manufacturing the mouthguards. DB Orthodontics has re-launched the mouthguard product into the dental industry.

Helping the launch, players from Castleford tigers called in at the head office to the delight of staff and children from Silsden Storm rugby club. The youngsters had their rugby balls signed had some practice time with the Tigers, as well as time for a cup cake.

International sales manager for BD Orthodontics, Rebecca Bailey, said it was a good day which everyone enjoyed and was an ideal way of promoting the importance of protecting teeth while playing sport, something both family-run companies are passionate about.
