Food is one of life's essentials, but can get pretty interesting for brace faces! I wish someone would have given me a list of do's and don'ts when it comes to eating certain foods with braces! So to save everyone trouble in the future - I have comprised my own list!
Brace Face Friendly Foods
- Shakes
- Tator tots
- Oatmeal
- Chicken soup
- Soft tacos
- Steamed veggies
- Peanut butter cookies
- Applesauce
- Strawberries and bananas
- Yogurt
- Pasta
Brace Face Not So Friendly Foods
- Spinach (gets wrapped around your braces)
- Poppy seed muffins (those little seeds get lost!!)
- Steak (hard to chew)
- Red sodas (they make your teeth look red all day)
Brace Face Absolutely Can't Haves
- Caramel popcorn
- Caramel apples
- Caramel anything!
- Taffy
- Raw carrots, apples (unless sliced), and celery
- Tortilla chips
- Hard candies (unless you don't chew them)
Hopefully this list will help you not to order something that may be embarrassing later on! If you aren't a brace face, I hope you will be considerate around your friends that do have braces and order that caramel apple another time!
Until next time - keep smiling!!
