What to eat with temporary crowns in front?
I had temporary crowns placed on my top 3 front teeth yesterday. I know what the no-nos are, such as gum, carrots, etc. Problem is, I can't think of anything to eat besides Cream of Chicken soup, and I'm sick of that! Any tasty ideas? I'm thinking about buying some Stove Top stuffing and eating that for dinner.

Hi,
Yes, stay away from carrots and gum, etc, and avoid apples, or chop them up into small pieces.
I had my six front teeth crowned/veneered and I cannot remember what I ate for the two weeks I had to wait for the crowns/veneers to be made.
I ate soft things, staying away from hard things. Although, I do remember eating pizza and swollowing one of my tempories!
The temporary crowns are cemented using a temporary cement, which makes it easier for the dentist to remove the crowns when you are having your permanent ones fitted. With it being a temporary cement, you have to be careful, as it isn't as strong as the permaent cement.
Stick with soft foods and stay away from hard and sticky foods, for example.
Keep smiling,
IC.
