Hypo remedies when wearing braces

fruit juice, 200ml cartons (value oj or apple) are cheap and easy

Hi @Kirstine Glucose tablets shouldn't break his braces, they start dissolving as soon as they are placed in the mouth, I use glucogel which is easy to use as you simply twist off the plastic top and squeeze directly into the mouth or jelly babies if I am exercising.

I remember having braces (although I wasn't diabetic at the time!). I would suggest fruit juice, but agree that glucose tabs should be safe. When I had braces I initially didn't drink soft drink, but later started drinking it and never had any problems (although I did take very good care of my teeth, brushing for 10min every night).
