Frosties, Cornflakes, granola, Cheerios and Honey clusters are all examples of “cereal killers” which will fracture and bend your brace, rendering it useless. That being said you may be able to eat these cereals if they have had time to soften in milk… but who wants a soggy cereal?!
Likewise, can you eat oatmeal when you have braces? Oatmeal. Oatmeal is another excellent option if your mouth is sore after getting braces. The warmth of the oatmeal can even help with swelling and inflammation. Its also easy to prepare and can be ready to eat in minutes if you****re looking for a quick snack option.
