Had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled July 26 2012 today is Saturday how long before you can eat real food again?

The healing time after wisdom teeth removal can vary from person to person. While some individuals may be able to tolerate real food within a week, it's generally recommended to wait at least two weeks before fully reintroducing solid foods. During the first few days after the surgery, it's important to focus on a soft, non-abrasive diet consisting of liquids and pureed foods. Gradually, as the healing process progresses and any discomfort subsides, you can start introducing more solid foods back into your diet.

To ensure a smooth recovery, it's essential to follow your dentist's instructions and stick to a diet that's easy to chew and swallow. Avoid any foods that can potentially irritate the surgical sites, such as foods with small, hard pieces or those requiring excessive chewing. Remember, it's better to take things slowly and give your mouth enough time to heal properly before transitioning to a fully regular diet.
