  1. You’re not supposed to eat anything sticky like gum, gummy bears, laffy taffy, etc. You’re also not supposed to eat hard things like carrots, apples, jolly ranchers, but you are allowed to cut them up into little pieces (u would most likely do this with the apple and carrot only). Popcorn is offlimits too. But, you’ll notice that many people don’t follow the rules. I don’t say it’s right, but I never did and my braces were fine. The first few days, your teeth will be sore, so plan on soup for food. Even soft things like bread hurt my teeth, and pick up some tylenol or something for the pain if you want! GOOD LUCK!!!


  2. I had braces for a while. Foods that you cannot eat are APPLES, TOFFEE, FIZZY DRINKS and CRUSTY BREAD. Those can break your braces. Fizzy juices can rot the metal and Toffee can stick to them.
    You can eat everything else apart from them!!! :)
    My dentist told me that is you REALLY like fizzy juice, you can have them once a month!!!
    Good Luck!! :)


  3. i had braces for about a year and a half and i didn’t stop eating anything chewy, crunchy or sticky and i was just fine. as long as your careful you can eat whatever you want =)
    but of course when i first got them i only ate soft foods because it hurt =(


  4. the dentists tell you not to eat alot of stuff
    Ice, Popcorn…gum
    But i eat it all…
    What you should be worried about are Nerds.. the little candies.
    I’ve lost a bracket with those.
    Good luck!! answer minehttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;…


  5. You can eat pretty much all the same stuff, just differently, like you gotta slice up apples and take smaller bites of tougher things, like pizza crust.


  6. I think you can eat pretty much anything! As long as it is not to hard or chewy. Ask your dentist for further information it might depend on what type of braces you are getting!

  8. You should Start of with Soup at first , cause it reeeally hurt when they put it on !


  9. dont eat laffy taffy or gum or tootsie rolls


  10. I just got braces and I really don’t like them. I used to eat gum, tootsie rolls, chips, bacon, laffy taffy, succers, twislers ( or licerish). But know I can’t eat any of that stuff, but if you want to eat stuff like that ask your mom or dad to look up whatI can eat after I get my braces.com//
