Are you allowed to eat chocolate when have braces on?

It is generally recommended to avoid eating certain types of food when you have braces on, including sticky, hard, or chewy foods, as they can damage the brackets or wires. Chocolate, especially hard or chewy varieties, can pose a risk to your braces and should be avoided. However, softer types of chocolate, like milk chocolate or chocolate mousse, may be eaten with caution. Always consult with your orthodontist for specific dietary guidelines during orthodontic treatment.
