Wisdom teeth?

im 18 male, my 4 wisdom teeth were fully erupted and pulled on july 20th (40 days ago) there are still 4 %26quot;gaps%26quot; or %26quot;holes%26quot; were the teeth used to be, just wanted to ask if there is still some thing i should avoid, example : certain type of foods or wut not or can i eat the chips and all of that again.

Wisdom teeth?
No chips or nuts nothing small cuz it could get in the gaps then you will have bad breath. Once they heal you could eat anything again. I had the same problem at your again.
Reply:You should be fine. There isnt any space for food to get stuck in therefore no infections. 40 days should be plenlty to start eating all foods again.
Reply:You should be fine! The doctor actually sewed mine shut after he pulled my wisdom teeth, so I didn%26#039;t have to worry about it.
Reply:Well I just recently went to get mine pulled and I was told that when food does get in there it will all just break itself down. And Even when I first got them pull when I was still numb I was already eating pizza and my teeth are just fine
Reply:Consult your oral surgeon, but it%26#039;s best to rinse your mouth after eating to avoid infection. He probably sewed up the gums well, and may even have you on antibiotics, but you want to make sure that nothing nasty gets into the open wound and finds a home there.
Reply:After a week or so, you should start to eat regular food.
Reply:your doctor should have given you a list and had a check up, once you are released they usually tell you if you think you can eat it then do but if it hurts stop. just be careful and please make sure that you brush after everything you eat. and if your doctor gave you a needle looking think that would be used to rinse the holes continue to use it. always make sure you rinse your mouth because that is how a simple pulling can turn into a cavity and mouth decay
Reply:one thing you should know is that it takes time for things to go back to normal. You may continue to have %26quot;holes for some time, but don%26#039;t worry, thy should fill back in. In the mean time, don%26#039;y eat popcorn, chips,nuts or hard candy. these things can log in the spaces and become homes for bacteria wich can infect your gums and teeth. Keep brushing regulary,and try to only lightly brush the %26quot;holes%26quot; and rinse with listerine or some generic for of it. This will help with bacteria, and it antiseptic.


hope this info helps. I recently made a appointment to have mine out ;%26gt;
