Could I chew gum with braces?
I just got braces a few months ago. And everyone is telling me to chew gum. But i don't want to have any problems. Should I try chewing it?
                     




amelia_0405
yes just keep it in ur mouth


I am cindrella
when i got my braces on they sead 19 moths i chewed gum every day it did nothing at all at first it gets stuck and stuff but after that nothing ( i ate apples pop corn and nothing happed)
but dont be care less dont put a hole pack in your mouth take it slow i have mine off and they look realy good


(p.s cant spell)


juturnalove
you really not supposed to, but i did all the time. just do it carefully or it will get stuck. and thats really annoying =] haha.


Scotty2247
No. You should not chew gum with braces. It will make the brackets loose and you don't want that to happen. You can survive 2 years without chewing gum.


bobb
I also got braces and my dentist just forbid me to bite hard fruits like guava... chewing a gum is not a problem as long as you dont try blowing it... just chew it using you molar but not with your front teeth

yeah u can but just chew carefully


Maria
Not really (yes & no), it will get stuck in your braces. Get used to being bubblegum-less. If you do decide to, you will have to go in a mirror and take the little stuck pieces of gum out; I wanted a gum badly so I decided to have it, and that's what happened to me. Then brushing your teeth will clear all of it out....But it won't necessarily "destroy" your braces.


Support Spears
Yes. It doesn't make any difference. Bubble gum or sugar free. I wouldn't advise doing it if you have to wear those rubber bands connecting your top teeth to your bottem teeth. I never had to have those, but my friends did and they didn't chew gum with them in.


holly
Never had braces but would imagine gum would stick to them.
You could always try it and decide for yourself.

not advised


Paulette
If you do not want problems, do not do it. The more mistakes you make the more damage you do and the longer you will have braces.

My daughter did everything right and they took about 2 years.

My son did nothing right and they took 6 years.
