Soft stuff like mashed potatoes, jello, pudding, ice cream, etc.

If you want it to stop bleeding, here's a tip: put black tea bags on the site where the tooth was taken from instead of the gauze. The tea bags don't stick to the wound and keep re-opening it whenever you change them like the gauze does. Also, the black tea has antioxidants that helps you to heal faster. My dentist had me do that when he took (all four at once!) my wisdom teeth out, and I was better a few days later.

Just stick to soft foods. Your dentist is just worried about food getting into the open socket. Juet be careful eating it and be aware when eating not to chew on that side.

And yes the bleeding is normal, it has only been a day.

just rinse with some good mouth wash.. nothing to worry.. its just a clot which is coming out..relax and be happy

u can eat ice-cream. (not much)..plain rice with some pulses.
cornflake with slight warm milk.

dear after wisdom tooth extraction certain precautions are requred.. and this area remains out of reach of tooth brush.. so it will b difficlut for u to clean and food may get deposite there. there might be dry socket or socket may not even heal on time.. so be careful..
its justt a matter or 3 days.. consult the dentist on time.. ok
he is the best judge.

get well soon..

yes you can eat soft foods you can swallow, not chew. If the blood clot comes out you'll have a dry socket which will be extremely painful and if you get it go back to your dentist there is a paste he can insert. bleeding a little is normal. I was a dental assistant and assisted many wisdom tooth extractions.

have u heard IGNORANCE IS BLISS?
GO AND EAT!

soup.....pop sick-L....crap like tat
