However, if you eat foods that aren\u2019t recommended by your orthodontist, you run the risk of damaging the brackets and wires that hold your braces together. This could result in extending the length of time you need to wear the braces.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Andy is here to help! We\u2019ve compiled a list of the foods to avoid and foods that are okay to eat with braces.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Foods to Avoid with Braces<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Be smart and follow your orthodontist\u2019s instructions. Don\u2019t eat foods that are sticky, crunchy, hard, tough, gooey, chewy, or high in sugar. It\u2019s really just about using common sense. Some examples of foods to avoid with braces include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Popcorn<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/braces-food-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-209\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/braces-food-3.jpg\" alt=\"colorful hard candy | Dr. Andy\" width=\"317\" height=\"212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/braces-food-3.jpg 575w, https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/braces-food-3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Nuts and seeds<\/li>\n<li>Sticky and hard candy<\/li>\n<li>Taffy<\/li>\n<li>Ice<\/li>\n<li>Pizza crust<\/li>\n<li>Chunky peanut butter<\/li>\n<li>Corn chips<\/li>\n<li>Pretzels<\/li>\n<li>Beef jerky<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Avoid biting into hard foods with your front teeth. You can still enjoy these types of foods by simply cutting them into small pieces and chewing with your back teeth. It\u2019s also important to brush your teeth after every meal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Foods that Are okay to eat with braces<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although there are foods you should avoid with braces, soft foods are much easier on the hardware in your mouth. Be sure that what you\u2019re eating constitutes a healthy, nutritious diet.\u00a0Some examples of foods that are okay to eat include:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/braces-food-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-205 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/braces-food-2.jpg\" alt=\"banana slices | Dr. Andy\" width=\"317\" height=\"211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/braces-food-2.jpg 575w, https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/braces-food-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bananas<\/li>\n<li>Cheese<\/li>\n<li>Applesauce<\/li>\n<li>Pasta (mac and cheese!)<\/li>\n<li>Mashed potatoes<\/li>\n<li>Tuna<\/li>\n<li>Meatloaf<\/li>\n<li>Cooked vegetables<\/li>\n<li>Melons<\/li>\n<li>Yogurt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/contact.php\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-583\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skororthodontics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/AND-CTA-2-e1508773890540.jpg\" alt=\"AND - CTA 2\" width=\"600\" height=\"209\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact Dr. Andy Today!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t let anything sidetrack you on the road to a healthy, attractive smile.
