What can you eat with braces?

In my case, almost everything, but with some reservations. Gnawing on a whole carrot or apple is fraught with the breakdown of the braces. I also avoided any fibrous food that gets heavily stuck in the braces.

Immediately after installing the bracket system, it is recommended not to eat for 1 hour. The first few days, it is better to eat light food for chewing: baby food, curds, yoghurts, it is possible to use a blender when cooking. Since the first time after the installation of the bracket system, the teeth can hurt, in order to eliminate painful sensations, it is better not to eat solid foods. On the following days, you can eat anything with a bracket system, but all food should be cut. There should be no biting movements, because biting off pieces from a large product can break the bracket system. Prohibited foods - you cannot eat dryers, crackers, nuts, roasted nuts, kozinaki, seeds, popcorn, you also need to exclude the use of products containing viscous and sticky substances - toffee, nougat, sweets such as snickers, mars, meller and frutella. It is better to limit the use of gum, the maximum can be chewed for 5-10 minutes, then it must be thrown away. Everything else can be consumed. There are also some foods that are more likely to get stuck in the braces - fibrous foods (peaches, persimmons), and very small foods - for example, poppy seeds.

Definitely not:

• hard nuts
• butterscotch
• solid vegetables, whole raw
• croutons

What you don't want to eat - any food that gets stuck in braces: parsley, dill, citrus fruits, etc.

Everything else can be eaten, in more than 3 years not a single one the bracket did not come off due to hard or unsuitable food.
