Even though your braces are designed to attach firmly to your teeth, they are also made to be removed without damage to the teeth. Biting on hard or sticky foods can damage or loosen the braces. If you damage the braces your treatment will almost always take longer to complete.
Sticky foods that are hard to clean off the braces may also lead to cavities and discoloration of the tooth surface around the braces! The following examples are of things to avoid:
Sticky Foods-
-
Chewing Gum, Caramels, Sugar Daddies, Starbursts, Sugar Babies, Etc.
Hard Foods-
-
Nuts, Popcorn. Hard Candy, Corn on the Cob, Ice, Jerky, Raw Crisp Vegetables, Etc.
Chewing On-
-
Pens, Pencils, Fingernails, Etc.
