I do not have braces. But if I was getting braces I would miss eating a lot of things. What I would miss eating the most was choclate. You can't eat choclate when you have braces because it will stick to your braces and you will have to have your orthidonist take the choclate off your braces.

My sister used to have braces, but now I have two in the front and two in the back. When you have braces you can't eat gum, you can't suck on lemon, you can't have hole apples, or any hard or sticky foods. When I get my braces off I'm going to ask my dad to buy me big packs of gum and sticky and hard candy.
