Thursday, February 28th, 2008
Citrus fruits such as oranges, tangerines and grapefruits are some of the top favorite fruits of all time of different people in different parts of the world. Don’t you just love the taste of the juices that you can squeeze from it?
Here’s the bad news for citrus lovers: Citrus fruits are not braces-friendly.
I’m not talking about the eating part in here. Yes, you can eat them since these fruits but then later on, you’ll realize that the little pieces are stucked in every bracket of your braces and your lips gets dry too.
Just make sure that you rinse your mouth a lot of times and floss your teeth after eating the fruits because the little pieces are just hiding behind your brackets. Beware!
