It's recommended not to, because it can get stuck in your braces, and very hard to get that sticky mess out of them. If you want to chew gum with braces, try to be careful with it.
It's more like, what CAN'T you do with braces. Let's see. Eat gum, eat popcorn, eat corn, drink soda, eat carrots. Although I do all of the above and I am perfectly fine.
can you chew gum when you have braces? most dentist will say only sugar free gum,but i have chewed plenty of gum with my braces that have not been sugar free the only gum you really need to stay away from is the really sugary sticky gum like:huba bubba and gum like that, the type of gum that i have chewed with my braces that has been the easiest was 5 gum and orbit.i hope you are satisfied with my answer.
Really chewing gum wont do any major harm to your braces, it will bend a wire or loosen a bracket or band if you aren't careful. The real reason why you should chew gum is because it "sets" your teeth into position. Meaning your basically stopping what the braces are trying do do, braces move your teeth but chewing gum stops them. Counter productive, but not really hazardous...
Any thats not too hard or chewy! If you chew gum make sure it's sugar free (you dont want to get gum stuck on your braces!).
I know not to eat popcorn and don't chew gum. Ask your Orthodontist about foods to avoid. Brush often.
some chewing gum gives you healthier teeth for example orbit complete as i eat that.
Orbit is a brand of GUM!my 3-year- old sister knows that!
Chewing gum and bubble gum, try to avoid all kinds of sweets, fizzy drinks and very hard things!
Orbit Gum was launched in 1944.
You can't chew suggared gum or other chewy candy, eat popcorn, hard candy, or drink soda
Orbit Gum lasts longer than Winter Fresh, but they are both good gum. If you had to pick one, try Orbit Gum for long lasting gum.
