What can't you eat when you have braces?

Answer 1

If you just got braces you shouldn't ...1. Drink Fizzy Drinks (because when you take your braces out your teeth will be stained in the shape of the brace)

2.Eat sweets (things like toffee will get stuck on the wires and the wires may come off)

3.Touch the wires (some children fiddle with it when it gets sore, it may come off)

4. Eat toast, roast potatoes, crispy cereal (let it go soggy) anything too small!

5. Eat crisps (other than skips, quavers and wotsits)

6. eat big pieces of food!

10. no gum unless its sugar free (fredent is best it doesnt stick)

Answer 2

It is not safe to eat hard fruits and vegetables, such as apples, carrots, and celery. Also, refrain from eating popcorn as the kernels may get stuck in your teeth. You also cannot have any sort of soda/pop. You can't have any gum unless it's sugar free.

Answer 3

You should avoid drinks that will stain your teeth like coffee and soda. Also, anything too chewy or hard that may damage or get caught in your braces should be avoided. Gum is definitely a no no.

Answer 4

People with braces can not eat: popcorn, nuts, peanut brittle, ice, lemons, corn-on-the-cob, crisp tacos, taffy, Carmel, gummy bears or other sticky foods, NO GUM, and no Pizza crust. Don't bite into a apple, cut it up and take careful bites of the wedges, and only steamed or cooked carrots, not fresh ones. Why? Because these foods will take the brackets off your braces, and you will have to wear your braces even longer. If you want a healthy smile, when you have braces, don't eat a lot of foods high in sugar content, such as pop. Diet is good. Anything else should be good, just check with your orthodontist for approval.
