Question: When can i start eating crunchy foods after wisdom teeth extraction!?
I got 4 impacted wisdom teeth removed!. i really wanna be able to eat crunchy foods like chips, crackers, cookies, etc!. its been 5 days since i got them removed, i didnt get sutures, so i have 4 open wounds in my mouth and im afraid crunchy foods may get stuck inside!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I feel your pain on this one!. A few years back I had 6 wisdom teeth removed ( yes 6 ) and it was the worst thing to go through!. Too be completly honest I stayed away from crunchy foods for about 2 weeks only because the pain in my jaw was too much!. I found it easier to eat things like soup and soft sandwiches!. My advice is to give it a week or two, trust me it is better to wait than to have to go back to the dentist because you have an infection in one of the open areas!. Hope this helps, good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I got all four of mine removed too!. I think it may be a little different for everyone, but for me it was a little more than a week after!. It's really when you start feeling comfortable with it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
