Braces????????

but i drink soda anyways
Reply:no, but it is really sugary and since it's harder to brush your teeth well with braces, it could lead to cavaties...just be sure to brush frequently
Reply:I have not heard that soda hurts braces in any way....directly. However, the sugar in soda is not good for the teeth. The sugar that sits on the teeth will react with bacteria to produce acids that can eventually attack the tooth enamel and produce cavities.
Reply:it doesn't affect ur braces, but it effects ur teeth, and if u drink to much and don't brush ur teeth, ur teeth will get stained, and get soft spots, and then when u get ur braces off u'll have with little white squre on ur teeth and the rest will be yellow. So no it doesn't affet ur bracesm but dont drink to much soda
Reply:Nope, not at all. It just runs right through them and so does every other liquid. Just DON'T chew gum with them if you didn't already know. Trust me, it's a pain!! Have a fantastic day!!! :o)
