Foods to avoid
Here are some of the best and worst foods to eat while wearing braces, as well as what you can do if you damage your braces.
You don’t have to consume bland food while you wear braces, but you also can’t eat the same things you used to. To prevent harming the wires, banks, or brackets, you’ll want to be aware of the foods to stay away from.
Popcorn & Nuts
You must refrain from eating popcorn when wearing metal braces. The husks can become stuck in your teeth, and the kernels run the risk of shattering the brackets or wires.
Avoid nuts since they can cause your braces’ wires to flex. Your braces’ ability to straighten your teeth can be slowed down if the wires become bent.
