In this post we discuss the details of Phase 1 and Phase 2 orthodontic treatment.
What is an orthodontic emergency?
If you have braces or an appliance in your mouth as part of your orthodontic treatment, there may be times when you call the office outside of our typical office hours. When this happens, you can leave a voicemail that we will respond to when the office is open next, or you can call our emergency number.
Many patients ask, “what is our emergency number for?” so we’ve decided to outline what is truly an orthodontic emergency.
Invisalign vs Braces: What's the best option?
When it comes to straightening your teeth and creating a more confident and healthier smile, there are a couple of different ways to do that.

Because of these different options, we hear patients asking us “What’s the difference between braces and Invisalign?”

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.
