Summer Foods Perfect for Braces

 

Who else is excited that summer is here?!

Here’s a list of delicious summer foods that are perfect for eating with braces:

• Soft breads and cheeses
• Barbecued meats that are soft and tender off the bone.  Avoid tough meats.
• Corn sliced off of the cob.  We recommend using a knife or this fun tool to cut the kernels off of the cob.
• All of the salads: lettuce, fruit, potato, jello, noodle!
• Grilled vegetables
• S’mores!
• Ice cream and popsicles!

As always be sure to brush your teeth and floss after eating any foods that are high in sugar or may get stuck in your teeth.
