You don't have to give up chips when you get braces, whether you prefer thin crisps from the package or heated potato chips. When your braces are still new, if your mouth is feeling a little sensitive, fries are the least dangerous and likely the simplest food to consume. Use a floss tip or proxy tip to remove any remains, but be careful; if certain pieces are difficult to remove, don't force it or attempt it again since Your braces might become damaged.
