Can You Eat Popcorn With Braces?
Can you eat popcorn with braces? No, unless hulless, It is primarily the hulls of popcorn that make it inadvisable to eat it while wearing braces. During popcorn popping, corn hulls become hard and remain in the kernels as leftover parts of corn seeds. In between your braces and your teeth, these hulls can easily get trapped. However it can be difficult to eat anything you were used to before, aside from soft foods such as bread and porridge, during the first few months after getting braces.
Popcorn must be hulless. You may crack or pop brackets or snap wires when chewing regular popcorn kernels with braces.
