Can you eat Hash Browns after you get your wisdom teeth out?

Answer 1

If the oatmeal is very warm, wait at least a day.

Don't forget to rinse your mouth with water and salt in case oatmeal crumbles accumulate in the extraction holes. You must wait at least 24 hours after the extractions before rinsing your mouth with anything.

Personally, I would wait at least a week. Don't eat anything that is too hot for the first few days and refrain from eating things with small particles that may get stuck in the tooth and gum area near the recovery site. I had stitches, so no holes, but food can still get in the nooks and crannies of your mouth. During the first few days, your cheeks and jaws will be sore and it is almost impossible to get your tongue back there to get rid of any food. This includes foods such as rice and oatmeal. Absolutely NO popcorn!!! Wait more than a week!

When I got my wisdom teeth taken out there were certain foods that were absolutely perfect. It is important that even though you are on a soft foods diet, you still eat foods with lots of nutrition. I loved V8 juice because it enabled me to have yummy fruits and vegetables comfortably (as opposed to Gerber mashed green beans and squash). I also loved Slimfast. It filled me up without hurting my mouth.

As I healed, I was able to eat foods with more sustenance. The first thing I ate was Boyardee spaghetti and meatballs with chopsticks. I preferred chopsticks to a spoon because I didn't have to open my mouth as far and it guaranteed that the pasta wouldn't be too hot by the time it got to my mouth. Note that I have been using chopsticks since I was five and my family owns a set of plastic chopsticks that can simply be put in the dishwasher and reused.

I also ate a lot of Dole canned diced peaches. First of all, I love canned peaches (more than fresh), they were very small and soft, and they could be eaten with chopsticks! I especially liked this around pill-taking time because once I was done with all of the peaches, the leftover juice was just enough to use to swallow a pill and I wasn't taking the pill on an empty stomach. Two other reasons why these were great was that they aren't too many calories so you don't have to worry about eating them at all hours of the morning and you can eat them pretty quickly and then get back under the covies. I also liked the slimfast for taking pills, but it wasn't really the best choice to be drinking at four in the morning.

As the week progressed, I started eating foods like Boyardee Lasagna, Beefaroni, and Ravioli, mac and cheese, applesauce, and yogurt, though I continued to drink a lot of v8 juice. Yogurt is important if you are also taking a narcotic. Because the narcotic kills bacteria (good and bad) you are at greater risk of getting certain infections such as as Yeast infection since your body doesn't have as much good bacteria to fight off the bad. A solution is to eat Stonyfield yogurt. I believe it always has 6 live cultures, but check the label to make sure. And don't get fruit on the bottom, get the ones such as lemon or vanilla with the flavor spread throughout for the same reason as the oatmeal and rice.
