Congratulations on your daughter’s first step to achieving a beautiful and healthy smile! I usually tell my patients they can continue with their normal diet.
However, they should avoid chewing hard food like nuts, crabs or ice cubes as these may cause the braces to come off from the teeth. She also should not bite off a whole apple, but instead cut the apples into bite-sized pieces.
After initial placement of braces, teeth tend to be more sore for the first few days. She can consider taking a soft diet like porridge, soup, tofu, yoghurt, eggs, etc. during these few days.
