The Web Health | 25 foods to eat after wisdom teeth removal
After wisdom teeth removal, it’s important to eat soft, easy-to-chew foods that are gentle on the healing gums and don’t get stuck in the extraction sites. Some of the best options include yogurt, smoothies, applesauce, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, oatmeal, soup (lukewarm, not hot), pudding, ice cream, and cottage cheese. Other good choices are soft fruits like bananas, avocados, and peaches, as well as well-cooked vegetables that can be mashed easily such as carrots or squash. You can also have broths, hummus, mashed beans, macaroni and cheese, soft fish, rice pudding, gelatin, and protein shakes to maintain nutrition.
