What should you eat when you have braces?
Answer:
you can eat whatever won't stick to them
Things that won't damage them...
Once tried to eat a Starburst and popped a band right off a molar...not those.
i hated braces. especially the first two weeks. you ate mashed potatoes and soggy cereal. that was a pain. eventually, you ate regular food, but soon found out it was never a good idea to eat milk duds
Orthodontists suggest that you dont eat sticky foods like starbursts and gum, but once you get used to them, if youre careful, you can eat them. You just cant chomp down too hard on sticky things... that will pull the bands off. Especially if you have the clear kind of braces like I have. Those kinds of braces are less strong, and the brackets fall off teeth more easily. Once you get used to them, though, you can pretty much eat anything as long as youre careful.
nothing hard or tough or really sugary.
your orthodontist will give you a pamphlet that tells you what you cant eat.
good luck! and remember, it will be worth it in the end!
I have braces and I eat usually everything. Although, don't eat whole apples. Bad times with those. ANd don't eat taffy. That's just about all! Enjoy your braces!
