Good Snacks for Kids With Braces

I find that having a variety of soft snacks for braces on hand helps my kid better cope with missing out on his usual crunchy favorites. Recommendations from fellow parents are so helpful when it comes to braces must haves, so let's build a list of good snacks for kids with braces!

    Chicken nuggets are good. My kid tends to eat pretty light at mealtime when his teeth are sore, so it's nice to have some more hearty snacks for braces. They are especially easy if you have an air fryer or toaster oven.
