What to eat during orthodontics

Most people will feel pain and even refuse to open their mouth, let alone eat. So you should eat soft food in the first two or three days, such as porridge, noodles and so on. Decide when you can resume eating rice according to your adaptation.

Usually, the foods that should be avoided, such as sugar cane, spareribs, crabs, popsicles and so on, spareribs, chicken legs, beef jerky, snacks with core and shell, etc., should be prohibited because it takes a lot of effort to bite or chew such foods, which will loosen the appliance and deform the steel wire, affecting the movement of teeth.

If the nutrition is not balanced during the treatment, care will affect the effect of treatment, so we should pay more attention to the balanced diet.
