I got my wison teeth (all 4)removed yesterday. I am supposed to be on a soft food diet for the next day or two. I have applesauce, pudding and jello, but am looking for more ideas. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!!

I feel bad for you. I had all my teeth removed at once. Its no fun. I bet you could try scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes,yogurt,squash, or even baby food. My son loves the Hawaiain delight and he is 22 years old. Just be careful of the temperatures of the food. Good luck.

I just thought of two more...oatmeal and bananas.

I feel your pain, I have no idea how you are alive with 4 teeth being pulled at one time. I had one toothe pulled the one in front of my wisdom tooth and I am dying here. I have to be on soft foods too mainly because I now have about 9 back teeth missing and am waiting for the implants. I am living on garlic, cheesy potatoes. They are so good and soft to eat. I am also eating the other stuff thats soft too. But you can almost make a meal on these cream potatoes. Good Luck with your recovery, mine is only 5 days so far.

It been about 6 weeks for me. After 3 days I was tired of doing nothing, so I went out shopping and was eating "real" food by day 6, though probably a bit to early to have started that. Good luck to you. Milkshakes are nice, just make sure they are thick enough since you have to eat it with a spoon.

When I had all my 4 wisdom teeth out, my mum cooked porridge for me every day :)
