I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out, so I know where you're coming from. For the next few days stick to stuff that requires little or no chewing - soup, mashed potato, yoghurt (chocolate mousse is also good). Avoid bread and fruit with "bits" in it, and anything too hot or too cold.
Keep the sockets where your teeth were as clean as possible, and remember to do the salt water mouth washes - its a pain in the backside but trust me its worth it in the long run.

I a dental assistant so, you need to eat cold soft foods. Protein shakes with ice cream is the best. Take your meds as prescribed and if you have any serious questions, call you dentist immediately

Scrambled eggs with bread and butter. Cut the crusts off. Soup. Mince.
By day 3 you should be eating more-or-less normally, but AVOID CRISPS for at least ten days (guess how I know that!).

be sure not to use a straw because it can cause dry socket.. you should eat soft foods, macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, brocolli, jello, soups, ice cream, I lived on popsicles for days when i had mine out... anything that you don't have to bite down hard on...Make sure what you eat is not real hot, because the heat will hurt you too... good luck..

hey, do NOT use a straw. you can get an infection if you use it and using a straw can create a "vaccum" or some strange thing where they pulled out your teeth. it happened to me even though i didn't use a straw and it SUCKS (no pun intended). it hurt for almost two months. i was living off of advil.

It depends on if they are all removed at the same time. I had to have the top right one removed just before Christmas. I avoided anything hot or too cold to drink, and just ate 'normal' food, such as sandwiches.

soft foods like soup, ice cream, don't drink anything fizzy as it hurts, i learnt that the hard way. i went for a meal the evening after having mine removed and was sore for a couple of days

Ask the dentist. Otherwise I would think anything soft.Scrambled egg etc. It's not a good idea to smoke though, for a while at least.
