Quest bars and braces

I had braces as a kid and as an adult (5 years ago). The first time was with full bands and the second time with brackets glued to each tooth. In both cases I did not chew gum or eat sticky things. Especially as an adult when I was paying for them, no forbidden food or snacks were worth damaging my braces or causing any treatment delays. I say follow your orthodontist's recommendations on what not to eat. I wouldn't eat the Quest bars, not only because they could be hard on your mouth hardware but also because they would make cleaning your braces difficult (yuck).

My son used to eat quest bars when he had braces with no issues. I used to cut them into 4 pieces and bake them for 3 minutes at 250, then smush the 4 pieces into a cookie , turn over and bake for 3 more minutes and voila a healthier version of a cookie...

Gwen, you are always making improvements! You're a forever blossoming flower, I love it.

I think if you break a piece off with your hands before putting it in your mouth rather than biting directly into the bar you should be fine.
