Go for soft foods:

switching to soft food items is really important when you have braces on. Food restrictions are common when we talk about traditional braces. Avoiding sticky, gummy and hard food is really necessary. Sticky food can get stuck to the wire and any disruption of the apparatus (while removing the sticky stuff from the braces) can cause pain or can increase the discomfort because your gums are still sore. Second most important consideration with respect to food is that after each tightening session, or right after you have had them installed, make sure you avoid chewy and crunchy food. Soft food such as mashed potatoes, cereals, soups, can be come in handy an can be very comfortable as well.

With Invisalign, however, there is a benefit and it is the fact that since there are no wires in an Invisalign apparatus, you do not have to worry about tightening and hence the restriction on food is either absent, minimal or very lenient.
