Easy digestible food before wisdom teeth removal?
Question:
Answers:
I had 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled out at once, a few years back. A few hours after i had it pulled i ate yogurt i had difficulty swallowing a bit but it doesn't hurt the gums and it requires little to no chewing.
I dont really know how bad it is with only 2 teeth removed but theres one thing i know. Don't expect to eat a full meal that day.. :(
Tips
-Try not to suck on foods like candy it causes the gums to bleed.
-Cool foods feel yummie on a sore mouth
-NO HOT FOODS!! cool down before eating.
Here is a lists of things i managed to get down.
-Yogurt
-Smoothies
-Soups that are room temperature to cold even.
-Soft boiled eggs (once again cooled down) its no fun eating hot or even warm things.. It will cause the pain to go out of control.
-Soft fruits like mango and banana and strawberries.
-Canned fruits
-Venna sausauge if you like that stuff.
-Jello!!
For a decent meal try
-Mashed potatoes!
-Mac and cheese
Hope i helped. Maybe you have an idea in mind. And in 3 more or less days you'll be back to eating solids.
I had 2 wisdom teeth removed last year, but my dentist didn't tell me about eating anything specific before hand. Are you going to be put under for it? I wasn't, so maybe that was why.
But I would suggest things like soup, jello, etc. You'll be eating those kind of things for a few days afterwards too.
You could try things like soup, crackers, fruit, soft veggies before. I ate normally the day before but was told that I couldn't eat or drink anything past 10:00 the night before my surgery. I had all four of mine out at once and survived on things like applesauce, soup (my mom made some chicken vegetable soup and pureed it in the blender), jello, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes, popsicles, Ensure drinks, pasta.
My doctor told me I couldn't eat dairy for the first 24-48 hours. After that time, I had yogurt, pudding, smoothies, mac and cheese, cottage cheese. Make sure you don't eat anything while it's really hot. Make sure you rinse with salt water after you eat; don't spit, just rinse and let the water fall out of your mouth.
