Yes. Clear aligners make it easy and comfortable to participate in physical activity. Feel free to keep the aligners in while playing low-contact sports such as basketball or running. 

For more hard-contact sports, such as football, we recommend replacing the aligners with a mouthguard. Mouthguards can help protect your teeth from damage. If you’ve experienced dental damage from contact sports, let Drs. Mark and AnneMarie Benage know as soon as possible.
