I am the last person to tell you about eatting mushy food the very first day or so of braces. I managed to chow down on egg salad and a half of a steak and cheese sandwich. I can tell you that I have had days were food was my worse enemy, especially after they put that horrid A chain on my upper left and right canines and bottoms too. Major ouch!! My teeth were so grumpy I had to manage with oatmeal and scrambled eggs for two days. I was not a happy camper!!!

Generally I eat most anything I can eat with out getting into much trouble with my ortho. I love to eat Cheerios and other types of no-no's with out milk or something to soften them. I am very carefull when I eat those things because I don't want to bend my wires. I now eat steak, pork chops, and other foods that require more chewing on my back teeth. It does get better as time goes on, but I won't kid you about eatting and getting certain adjustments for the first few days.. It is a major kill joy!! Best of wishes..
