We have great news for athletes! Yes, you can still play sports even while undergoing orthodontic treatment. It’s highly recommended that you wear a mouthguard to protect your teeth and your appliance. Please let us know if you need a mouthguard!
In case of a sports emergency, be sure to immediately check your mouth and appliance for damage. If you notice any loose teeth or appliance damage, please contact our office right away. You can temporarily relieve the discomfort by applying wax and/or rinsing your mouth with warm saltwater.
