Many people correct their teeth because of the irregularity of the teeth that do not fit in the top and bottom. When you start orthodontics, it takes an average of one and a half years to two years.
If the calibration device falls off or the food gets stuck in the calibration device, the calibration period will be extended. So I’ll tell you more about good and bad foods when I have braces today.
Bad food for orthodontics
hard food
The braces are glued to the teeth, and this device falls off more easily than I thought. Especially when I eat hard food, I often fall down, not only dried squid, kkakdugi, but also fruits and vegetables such as sweet potatoes and apples. It is a hassle to go through the process of reattaching the braces when the braces come off, so it is recommended to avoid hard food as much as possible.
sticky food
It’s good to avoid foods that stick to your teeth and braces like caramel, gum, and rice cake. If the food on the braces or teeth does not come off and is decayed, it can damage the device or cause cavities.
Good food for orthodontics
soft food
Right after attaching the braces, it is better to eat soft foods that do not burden your teeth, steamed eggs, porridge, tofu, etc., and noodles with wide range of menu choices are also good. However, you should be careful with relatively tough noodles such as jjolmyeon and naengmyeon.
dairy products
Dairy products such as cheese, milk, yogurt, and soy milk make you feel strong and have a lot of calcium and protein, which helps your teeth health. You can drink lightly or feel soft texture, so it is especially easy to chew food early in the calibration process.
So far, we have briefly learned about good and bad foods during orthodontics. Avoid sticky and hard foods and eat soft foods that digest well. Please refer to those who are having braces and I hope it helped you.
