What to eat with braces
I just got spacers in, and I'm getting braces next week, and my orthodontist told me I might not be able to eat solid foods for a while. Does anyone have any suggestions other than milkshakes/smoothies, mashed potatoes, and pudding?
Thanks in advance :)

you know what, i dont follow any of those dentist rules i eat and chew what i want, but for sure, make sure you DO NOT eat jolly rancher or now and laters.. they will mess your braces up bad,..when ya bite down theyll tear them rite out. and other really chewy or sticky candies will do that.. and when ya get braces dont worry about what ya eat even if they give ya a list, just make sure what you eat isnt too chewy and your fine, and gum and starburst are fine too..just make sure you dont get gum stuck in an arch wire or something, and youll fine. ♥

heyhey.
i can relate to you A LOT.
on august 15th i just got my braces on.
the first dya i ate panera broccoli and cheddar soup, pudding packs (for like luches) applesauce (for lunches too).
cereal is good, it might have to be soggy.
i noticed that it is easier to chew with my back molars.
by the next night, if i cut normal food into smallsmallsmalllll pieces..i could eat anything..including chicken!
although i did not have a lot of pain, soon we WILL have straight teeth =)
before you go to get your braces on, swallow some tylenol, and put on LOTS of blistex.
hope i helped cause this is a very long answer!

braces...when you get them, chew gum!! it will loosen them up (you might break a cuple brachets) but thats why the ortho guy doesnt want you too.
