Braces can i eat popcorn if got my braces 2 days ago?

Popcorn Kernels: These tiny hulls can get easily trapped between your teeth and brackets, causing discomfort. Popcorn kernels can scratch or loosen the brackets, increasing your risk of permanent damage.

Hard Popcorn Hulls: Crunchy shells can strain the brackets and wires of your braces, causing them to bend, break, and even pop off completely.

Sugary Popcorn Additives: Movie theaters often add sweeteners like honey, corn syrup, or caramel to their popcorn. Consuming high-sugar popcorn can exacerbate the risk of cavities and sugar buildup around the braces.
