Can you eat pizza with braces? This is a question we hear quite often from parents of tweens and teens, as well as adults who get braces in their older years. Pizza is one of America's favorite foods, and it's one that has many great memories associated with it. Watching the Big Game with friends, gathering around the dinner table with family, and even indulging in the occasional leftover slice for breakfast in the morning. Some of our best pastimes take place with pizza, and we'd hate to have to give that up or steer our children clear of one of the all-time best foods.
