“It’s complicated…”

I think the pressure from the wire on the brackets is what actually makes them break off when you bite something hard so good luck with your new tooth gem ig

“What other hards things should we try???”
“Rocks” 🤯

HELP ME BREAK MY BRACES BRACKET! this is weird for me normally its the other way around lol 😅

[luceleaf]

I think the reason it isn’t coming off is because with a full set of braces, there is a wire connecting multiple brackets, since there are more areas the food can get lodged onto it makes it easier for the brackets to break off. With a single bracket, you are essentially trying to break off a tiny bump on your tooth with little surface area and no places for food to get lodged into and potentially rip it off when you are chewing

the aggression you bit into those pretzels felt personal

you can tell he had too much fun with this lol

The part you're missing is the wire! It could totally break off if there was a wire to create tension and put stress directly on the bracket. **Coming from someone who had braces for 3.5 years.

I feel like the wire is actually what pulls them off when you eat foods like that

this is the moment he found out that not all crunchy foods ruin your brackets 🥲such a beautiful moment

The truth is

If you tried to break an orthodontic bracket (a small metal or ceramic attachment bonded to teeth for braces) with hard snacks, several things could happen:

1. **Bracket Damage or Detachment:** Brackets are glued to teeth with dental adhesive, which can be weakened or broken by force. Biting down on hard snacks like nuts, hard candies, or ice could cause the bracket to crack or completely detach from the tooth. This would require a visit to the orthodontist to repair or replace the bracket.

2. **Wire Damage or Misalignment:** Even if the bracket itself doesn't break, the force exerted while chewing on hard snacks could bend or dislodge the archwire that connects the brackets. This can cause discomfort, affect the alignment of teeth, and delay the overall progress of orthodontic treatment.

3. **Tooth Damage:** Hard snacks could not only damage the brackets but also chip or fracture the teeth themselves. Teeth under orthodontic treatment can sometimes be more susceptible to damage, especially if they're under tension from braces.

4. **Increased Risk of Mouth Injury:** Breaking a bracket or wire could lead to sharp edges that may cut or irritate the inside of your mouth, gums, or tongue, causing pain and requiring immediate care.

To avoid these risks, orthodontists typically recommend avoiding hard, sticky, or chewy foods while wearing braces to protect both the braces and the teeth.

It’s a bit different with the wire, because from my experience usually hard foods get lodged in between the tooth and the wire, and yank off the bracket that way.

my dude tryin his hardest to prove you can’t eat anything hard with braces 😂 he chopping like the world is about to end, like is that how you think we eat 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 i’m dead 💀

[Tillyrana]

You should try maybe ice, corn on the cob or apple

[ciciad]

I've had braces for almost two years now. It's always the softest foods you think won't break your brackets that break your brackets. 😂 I have ate countless suckers and sticky crunchy things but I never break a bracket on things you'd expect to.

People with braces:
*we don’t even have to try*

[minellatentella]

Skittles and almonds (or any kind of nut) works for breaking brackets, as I have broken several brackets because of them.

[elvirablomqvist]

You could try to bite into a popsicle but not break your teeth😂🤣😭
