Why cant you eat tortilla chips with braces?

Tortilla chips are not forbidden when you have braces, but they can be difficult to chew and may damage the braces if they are caught in the wires or brackets. This can cause pain and may require a visit to the orthodontist for repair. To avoid this, it is best to avoid eating tortilla chips and other hard, crunchy foods while wearing braces. Instead, opt for softer foods such as yogurt, fruits, and vegetables that will not damage your braces.
