  2. What can you eat? Let's talk about what you shouldn't eat! If you've been wanting to drop a few pounds, the first week wearing braces is just your chance! For the first day or so, stick to soft foods. Avoid tough meats, hard breads, and raw vegetables.

  3. Foods to Avoid For most situations, common sense will tell you what to avoid. Hard foods, sticky foods and foods high in sugar must be avoided. Hard foods can break or damage wires and brackets. Sticky foods can get caught between brackets and wires. Minimize sugary foods; they cause tooth decay and related problems. Nail biting, pencil and pen chewing and chewing on foreign objects should be avoided.

  4. Examples of Sticky Foods to Avoid: Regular bubble gum (sugar-free only) Licorice Sugar Daddies Toffee Tootsie Rolls Caramels Starburst

  5. Examples of Hard Foods to Avoid: Ice Nuts Hard taco shells French bread crust/rolls Corn on the cob Apples and carrots (unless cut into small pieces) Bagels Hard Chips Popcorn Jolly Ranchers Pizza crust Uncooked carrots (unless cut)

  6. Minimize Sugary Foods like: Cake Ice Cream Cookies Pie Candy

  7. Only Once a Day: It's important to regularly check your braces for bent or loose wires and brackets. In the event of a loose/broken wire or bracket, save your broken pieces and bring them with you to your appointment and call our office immediately to arrange for a longer appointment for repair. Gatorade Sweetened tea Soda Kool-Aid
