Holiday Treats for Kids with Braces

December 10, 2015 by admin Leave a Comment

There is no denying that festive treats are part of the fun during the holidays. However, many of them are too sticky, hard, or crunchy for people with braces to enjoy. These types of foods can damage the wires or brackets of your braces as well as make your teeth that much more vulnerable to decay. Having traditional metal braces during the holidays can be tough when it feels like you are constantly surrounded by things you can’t have!

There are many holiday treats you should try to avoid. These include:

Candy canes
Caramels
Toffee
Taffy
Jelly beans
Nuts

Fortunately, there are just as many braces-friendly treats that you can indulge in:

Hershey Kisses
Peanut Butter Cups
Soft Cookies
Pudding
Pumpkin Pie
Fudge

The most important thing to remember, though, is to always brush after enjoying any sweets!
