Eating With
Orthodontic Appliances

The crust of the pizza is the best part
   And the place where the bent wires start!
Hard rolls & pretzels & bagels & bones
   Knock off brackets & wires - so leave them alone!
Doritos & tacos and all the rest
   Will form a hard ball - make your braces a mess.
Popcorn and movies are fun for all,
   But the pain that it causes is no fun at all!
Nuts are always very good, too.
   But we'll have to say, "No nuts to you!"
Beef Jerky & Slim Jims are fun to eat,
   But for wrecking your braces, they're hard to beat.
Ribs & meat that are on the bone...
   The kind of foods you should leave alone.
Raw carrots and rabbits go together well
   And the damage they cause is easy to tell.
Suckers are always a sweet delight,
   But damage your braces if you ever bite.
Caramel candy, Ju-Ju Bees and all gums
   Are a gooey mess - and lots of fun.
   But they pull off the brackets
   And feed your bacteria,
   So, my good friend, don't let them get near ya'!
Pens and pencils
   Are food for thought.
   But if you come in with a band or bracket off,
   You've been caught
Ice is nice in the heat, we all know
   But it destroys all your braces-
   a thousand times NO!

*Remember*
Caring for your Braces today...
Protects your Smile for tomorrow!
