[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I have pudding, bone broth, soups, black tea, apple sauce, peanut butter, hid the straws, and think I'm mostly set (can't find jello without the dyes so will skip it).

I just want to know how many days to do liquids only or what the specific criteria is before being able to eat soft foods. Everything I'm seeing online seems very vague and I don't understand.[/quote]

OP you only need to avoid straws and spitting for the first 24 hours. After that it’s fine. And the soft foods will be dictated by your comfort level. No need for a liquid diet unless you’re in so much pain you literally can’t chew.

An important thing to keep in mind is a little seeping blood after the extraction is 100% normal. Gushing blood is not. I had a tooth out a few weeks ago and I spit out a little blood after brushing in the morning for almost 2 weeks!

Put a towel on your pillow the first few nights because you may get a little blood mixed with saliva on your sheets.

Good luck!
