Yes! you certainly can. Your braces will have no impact on your ability to take part and compete in most sports. You should be careful (as always) to make sure you do not take a knock to the mouth or jaw area. If you suspect you may have damaged your braces please give our office a call urgently to arrange a checkup.
There are certain types of sports such as martial arts and wrestling where your mouth area is likely to experience impacts. Please speak with your orthodontist to see what can be done to mitigate the risks associated with your particular sport.
