    Foods to Avoid with Braces

    Although maintaining good dental hygiene may seem more challenging with braces, it can be more easily achieved by minimizing certain problematic foods.  These foods do not need to be eliminated from your diet completely, but it should be noted that certain foods can damage braces or make it more difficult to keep them clean.

    Foods to avoid with braces (to prevent damage to braces, wires, teeth)

    • Popcorn 
    • Hard Bagels 
    • Hard Candy
    • Carrots (unless cut into small pieces)
    • Touch Food (unless cut into small pieces)
    • Sugary Food

    Our team will be happy to share their knowledge and answer any questions you have about which foods may be damaging to braces, please call or text us anytime!
