What is okay to eat after you get fillings in your teeth?

Answer 1

Soup, cold food(as to not burn your numb mouth), foods that don't take much chewing(as to not accidentally chew up your numb mouth), nothing with a straw(so you don't pull out the blood clot), no Carbonated Beverages.

Answer 2

It depends on the type of dental work you have had. If it is a filling, usually you can eat most anything after a few hours. If it is an extraction, then soft foods several hours later are in order.

Answer 3

The new technology of dentistry lets the filling set quickly. However, it's best to eat slow and on the other side of your mouth just to be sure. If in doubt always ask your dentist any questions you may have. You can even phone them once home.

Answer 4

It is best to wait until the anesthetic wares off( if you have it). Your dentist will probably tell you not to eat for a while sot it gives the filling time to set probably.

When you do eat, the tooth with the filling will probably be sensitive to hot or cold things.

Answer 5

You can eat soft food that is not hard or sticky Plpain mashed potatoes, soft mac and cheese, etc. Try to eat on the side of your mouth that didn't have surgery and brush lightly around the area and rise very slowly to keep food particles out of the area. Also, you should eat before the surgery so you can go longer afterwards to give the area adequate time to heal before you try to eat or drink. Don't suck or spit if you can help it.
