How long did it take you to be able to eat normally again after getting your wis!

How long did it take you to be able to eat normally again after getting your wisdom teeth pulled?

I am on day 6 and I am still afraid to eat normally because food gets down in the holes. I am afraid I will pop a blood clot or something.

You should be fine to eat normal food by now. Just take smaller bites than you usually would and keep it toward the front of your mouth. I don't think you have anything to worry about with the blood clot. I understand about you being concerned but after a week, I think you are safe. Just don't jump in and think you are 100%, you still have to go slow and work your way up. All the answers I seen on this question had really great answers, it looks like they have been there too.

I was able to eat the same week that I had mine removed but like I said, it was smaller bites. I had been doing the exercises with my jaws to get them to open and not be stiff and I thought I was "all better" and I tried to eat a hamburger from a fast food place. I wasn't ready. That is why I say to take small bites. Do the jaw exercises. Keep rinsing your mouth out after you eat. You are doing great.
