When people have their wisdom teeth removed, they usually experience pain and swelling afterward. Doctors strongly recommend that patients observe a specific diet during the recovery period. Juices and soft foods, such as oatmeal or applesauce, irritate the wounds far less than solid foods. These should form the basis of someone's diet in the days after surgical extraction of the wisdom teeth. A patient can gradually return to his or her normal diet. The main purpose of staying on a soft-foods diet after surgery is to avoid interfering with the clotting of the wounds.

∙ 11y agoyes you can i have.
I had two wisdom teeth out, top and bottom right, plus the molar on bottom out 4 days ago, the first day I had yogurt and applesauce and took my meds as prescribed. Dont wait for anesthesia to wear off take your meds right away.
The second day I had yogurt, jello, milk, lots of water, scrambled eggs, re fried beans, lukewarm soup.
The third day...yogurt, jello, soup, chocolate milk, water :)
Today I've had yogurt, milk, breakfast burrito, taco salad.
stay away from straws and for those who smoke.....i smoked ciggs gently starting on the second day after surgery, dont suck too forcefully or you risk a "Dry Socket" also I learned a secret....if you put a moist piece of gauze over the area and lightly bite down on it while smoking you will have less risk of getting the dry socket. After you smoke rinse with lukewarm water very gently move your head side to side (no swishing!)
By the fourth day you should be feeling better and if you don't have a dry socket by now chances are you won't. Take caution that you are not out of the woods yet.....incorporate more foods as you fell comfortable, smoke gently without gauze and keep rinsing. The healing can take from twp weeks to a month depending on the individual.
Good luck! Glad those suckers are gone~ they were painful little boogers!

Why does it hurt to sallow when your wisdom tooth is cummin in?
Well food ends up touching the tooth. The tooth brand knew and not as strong as your other teeth. Also it might be from the tooth growing and breaking tissue in your gums.

If the gum around one a wisdom tooth is a little loose but the wisdom teeth otherwise seem perfectly fine what should be done about it?
Quite often, a piece of gum tissue overlies the wisdom tooth which is partially through. Keep the area as clean as possible, otherwise attend your dental checkups as recommended so your dentist can keep it under observation. If the loose gum is causing you pain or severe irritation, then the wisdom tooth may need to come out, but it sounds unlikely from what you describe. There is no need to have wisdom teeth removed, unless they are causing problems such as pain, swelling, infection, decay in the tooth in front etc. Very often, the risks of wisdom tooth removal outweigh the benefits. Sometimes a wisdom tooth does not erupt completely, and creates an extension of gum called operculum. While eating and chewing on food, this operculum can be irritated and infected causing a pericoronitis. This condition has signs of intense pain, redness, a bad smell and a difficulty of opening the mouth. If the operculum does not go away, it is advised to extract the wisdom tooth to prevent complications of the pericoronitis. Under certain conditions, if the wisdom tooth has erupted, but an operculum is still present, it is possible to make an operculectomy, which is the removal of the extension of the gum itself without extracting the tooth.
Is bread ok to eat right after pulled wisdom teeth?

I just had my top two wisdom teeth pulled a couple days ago due to cavities in each one of them. It is very painful having cavitites in them.

How do you stop cheek swelling i didn't get my wisdom teeth out and I'm pretty sure I'm not allergic to anything i woke up and my cheek and a little bit of my neck hurt and my cheek was swelling?
The cheek swelling was caused by bacterial infection, which food debris to the periodontal pocket of your wisdom tooth resulted in. Usually metronidazole and cefaclor should be taken orally about one week. The wisdom tooth need to be pulled out until the cheek swelling cure.
Why does your dentist recommend that you should have your wisdom teeth removed at 47-years-old even though you have had no problems?
A wisdom tooth may become impacted due to lack of space in the dental arch and its eruption is therefore prevented by gum, bone, another tooth or all three. Lack of space occurs because our jaws have become smaller (through evolution), we do not loose teeth through decay as frequently as in the past, and our diet is such that our teeth do not wear down as much. This impaction may cause saliva, bacteria and food particles to collect around an impacted wisdom tooth, causing it, or the next tooth to decay. It is very difficult to remove such decay. Pain and infection will usually insue. Also a asymptomatic wisdom tooth may over time slowly impinge on a branch of the facial nerve potentially causing progressive facial paralisis.
