Question:

Is it ok to chew sugar free chewing gum with braces?

I know you aren't supposed to chew gum with braces, but what about sugar free gum? Some people have told me that its ok with sugar free though. If anyone has any good or bad experiences please tell me. I need to know if its ok or not.


Answers:

I have 2 children in braces and their orthodontist told them to use sugar free chewing gum after meals if they couldn't brush.

So yes, sugar free gum is all right.
