I always used to be afraid of eating anything that's sticky in my initial stages of braces..now it's been two months and yesterday I have tried it and found that I could eat. Not like everyone..but yes I can eat.just to be careful I have applied peanut butter in between bread slices and ate it to avoid my braces to get stuck with it..and it worked..'cause saliva in our mouth actually doesn't let it stick to it teeth..so we just have to be careful while eating and make sure we are using other parts of our mouth more than teeth where braces are..
