You can eat everything you are eating now. You may have to put some foods through a food processor, even a small one will work just fine.

You can turn almost any soup into a cream soup until your gums toughen up, or you have dentures. Some things are easier to eat without the dentures, so be prepared to experiment until you are happy with the results.

Wishing you the best.

Hello, my daughter is an RDA. She said do not use a straw! The straw can cause any sutures or clots to break and bleed. She also said to eat very soft foods.

She recommends having your new dentures placed in your mouth immediately after your teeth are pulled. Please ask your Oral Surgeon for any advice. Good luck.

Have popsicles ready for when you immediately get your teeth pulled. The cold feels wonderful, and you can reach in and put them right where you need it. However, do not suck them! You can suck out the clot that forms in the tooth's socket, which allows the incision to properly heal. It is extremely painful. Just allow them to melt in your mouth. After a few days, you will feel better and be able to eat much more.

The first few days your gums will be sore so you probably will not feel like eating a lot, but you will want to keep your fluids up so plan on drinking extra fluids. When you do get hungry, start out with soft foods like scrambled eggs, oatmeal or grits. Stock up on soups, and it should be easy to eat mashed potatoes, or you can mash up steamed vegetables such as carrots or buttered peas and rice.

As your gums start to heal and the pain subsides and of course the swelling subsides you will find it easier to start eating other foods but it's a fairly slow process. Best of luck to you!
