For many families in Indianapolis, IN and Greenwood, IN the back-to-school season signals a return to routines and schedules. It's also a popular time to consider orthodontic treatment like braces for children and teens. At Glander Rochford Orthodontics, we often get asked if starting braces during this time is a good idea. Let's explore why it can be advantageous and how we can help make the transition smoother.

Can I Play Sports with Braces?
It’s fall in Indiana, which has the Glander Rochford Orthodontics team thinking about football, basketball, and all things sports!
We hear the question “can I play sports with braces?” all the time. It’s an important thing to consider, because there is an increased risk to certain mouth injuries when you are wearing traditional braces with brackets. This is true for children and adults that are active in any way, not just sports.
