So I've had braces for about a week now and it's been ok. I've been more or less brushing three times a day as advised and even bought more disclosing tablets to avoid plaque buildup. My front teeth are still tender and sore but there's no pain at the back and mid level teeth.
Now for the question- what can I eat with braces?
It's only been a week but I do really miss cake and chocolate.
I slightly overindulged the day before I got them (slice of cake, chocolate bar, hot chocolate (that's not even too much normally but I had greatly reduced sugar intake when I had dividers put in)) and I know I don't really need sugar right now but it would bring great peace of mind to know if i could eat cake and jam or like plain sugar without feeling too guilty.
The only sugary things Ive been eating since the fitting are lychee puddings (twice) a really watered down nesquik and a little bit of Nutella.
Also something I find difficult is flossing everyday since it takes near forever to loop it and I've only managed to get my back teeth flossed twice and only my bottom set. If there's any good solutions I'm all ears.
Thank you in advance!
