Celebrate Orthodontic Health Month With Gourmet Recipes

Last Updated on November 23, 2015 by koen

One of the least favorite aspects of wearing orthodontic devices for both teens and adults is having to avoid some of your favorite dishes while wearing braces. Worry no more. In conjunction with the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) for the Orthodontic Health Month, celebrity chef John Besh is promoting orthodontic-friendly recipes from his collection during the month of October.

Although Dr. Patricia J. Panucci of Beach Braces recognizes that it is difficult to do without some of your favorite foods during the time that you have orthodontic appliances in your mouth, she and the members of her practice also recognized that you want to continue eating tasty food. Dr. Panucci suggests that you try some of Chef John Besh’s featured recipes. Just because you are wearing orthodontic appliances does not mean you have to eat bland food. Take a look at some of these easy-to-prepare and tasty dishes, and you will be surprised at the variety of inviting foods that you can continue to eat.

Because Chef John Besh has four boys of his own, he understands the family’s needs to prepare something that everyone can enjoy for dinner. Here at Beach Braces, we want you to eat healthy food too.

In addition to Besh’s recipes, AAO is also promoting other orthodontic friendly treats on its pressroom page as part of Orthodontic Health Month. Try one of the many recipes, such as Spider Bites, Mounts of Brains Cookies Black Cherry Bats and more to satisfy your sweet tooth, or even Goblin’s Gooey Apples that take the place of taffy apples.

Dr. Panucci makes the orthodontic experience easy and fun while caring for her patients and providing you great customer service. Please contact us if you have any questions or to schedule your one-time complimentary exam at Beach Braces, your Manhattan Beach orthodontist.

Dr Patricia Panucci

Dr Patti Panucci attended the University of Louisville School of Dentistry for four years, where she graduated with a DMD degree (May 2000) among the Top 10 in her class. Following that, she headed west to Los Angeles to complete her three-year residency at one of the top-ranked orthodontic programs in the country – the University of Southern California.

Along with her certificate in orthodontics, Dr. Panucci earned a master’s degree in craniofacial biology. During those three years, she fell in love with Southern California beach life and decided that this was where her future lay.
