@@Tha_BlaccJedi777 I started eating solid foods again on day 4-5 haha. I felt no pain so tried and been since. I feel irritated tho cause it feels like I have food stuck in my mouth
Just had two molars and two wisdom teeth removed a few days ago. Got tired of eating yogurt and pudding so I'm just now straight swallowing Mac n cheese without chewing.
Feel your pain. I have a family celebration coming up on Saturday and I can't eat non of the food 😭... Still gonna prepare myself a plate and put it in the freezer to have it when I'm able to lol
I am on day 5 after getting my 2 wisdom teeth removed (only have two) reading the comments makes me feel great that I’m not alone. I’ve been eating pudding and yogurt and I feel so hungry even when finishing 10 cups of yogurt 😩😩
Just had my upper wisdom tooth removed last march 31 and i just had soft foods, smoothies, youghurt and mash potatoes and boiled pumpkin, the diet is still somewhat manageable for me.
im a 17 year old that just got all four teeth removed yesterday, i just want to say if you are nervous, dont be because its not as bad as you would think. the day before my surgery i was getting so nervous i would look everything up that they would possibly do to me but its nothing compared to what you would think! my main advice is dont stress too much about it, it literally took my dentist 10 minutes to extract all my four teeth lol i was in the lobby more than in the actual room for the surgery, but yea just dont stress too much about it! btw i was numbed and wide awake and all you feel is pressure but it does Not hurt!
@@northtexasdentalsurgery i have one question, after my extractions when i got home to change the gozz theres like a piece of skin hanging, do you know if they will numb me to remove it or will they just cut it? its like about 2 centimeters of skin or gum, im not too sure
@@calvin3446 hope your recovery goes well! I reccomend you eat like ice popsicles an other things that can melt in your mouth as long as you dont eat big foods that can seperate into little parts an possibly go in the wholes
This guy is the best in the business. He did mine and it was WAY better of an experience than I was thinking it would be. I'm 35 by the way... I had almost no swelling and my pain was manageable by just using ibuprofen. I highly recommend.
Diet: smoothies, shakes, liquid, yogurt, cottage cheese, soups, Mac and cheese, Make sure that it’s cooled down Avoid foods with high acidity 3-4 days (orange juice, soda, certain fruits) Avoid seeded foods! Avoid- spicy foods When can I eat more solids? - everyone is different. Depends on pain levels. How wide you can open jaw.
I had mine two days ago and I keep eating yogurt, egg soup, tea and soup soup soup . I don’t think I’m ever going to eat anything so painful. Soup is my lifesaver
Yolanda Makotsi totally understandable my brain also crazy since I have all the cravings for the things I can’t eat like roast chicken , popcorn, nuts wired right
Got my wisdom teeth out yesterday. Two bottoms out and it didn’t hurt at all, I’m only craving food like chicken, meat, and overall regular solid foods. I’ve been having nothing but milkshakes since yesterday. I can’t wait until I can eat something like a cheeseburger, or even some chips. Best part about the recovery is when you get to go on a buffet of all your favorite foods as soon as your done healing
I got all four wisdom teeth pulled yesterday & the left side of my jaw hurts significantly more than my right. I’ve just been in bed eating mashed potatoes, soup, pudding and ice cream and I hope the swelling goes down🤞🏽thanks for the informative video🦷
@@crazycheii Both sides did, but perhaps my left side was more impacted. It's been almost a week and a half since I had them extracted and my jaw finally feels normal and the pain went away after day 4 or 5 for me. So glad I didn't get dry socket or any infections. Hope your healing process goes well!
I'm on day 4. I had mine out via IV sedation. I was terrified, but I'm so shocked and grateful I haven't had pain or swelling. The first day after it kinda felt like a little muscle soreness, but not bad at all
I just had my wisdom tooth pulled 3 hours ago. I immediately got my prescriptions filled because I knew the numbness was going to wear off. I took my pain pills and now having a Smoothie from Smoothie King with a spoon. Somehow the coldness makes it feel better. My experience was not bad. This is my second time getting a tooth pulled. MY advice...have your pain pills ready before the numbness go away.
Why is everyone having such great experiences. I have been having the worst pains of my life and crying over the pain. On intense pain killers and still feel it.
Take ibuprofen or any other good meds, I’m taking 3 meds 2 every 8 hours and 1 every 12 hours and i feel no pain, it’s just the swelling for me, i just can’t try to chew anything at the moment hoping i’ll be able to by Wednesday
I think I have high pain tolerance and I got all 4 of mine out yesterday and I still have yet to use any meds. The only thing thats worse in my scenario is that I don’t wanna eat. I’m paranoid to get food stuck in the holes lol and I officially made up my mind that I’m just gonna water fast for the next 3 days. 😂
Got my 4 wisdom teeth removed 3 days ago, and honestly I had a great time! Yeah I was nervous and anxious but overall it was very welcoming and it wasn’t as bad as people say. I’ve never been sedated before and honestly I don’t know how to explain it but in easy words it’s like a really long blink, and boom it’s all done!😊
Just got 3 wisdom teeth extracted earlier this morning. They used an IV and I was knocked out. I was nervous and even having dreams about this day but it didn’t turn out bad at all. I don’t remember anything from the procedure but here I am now recovering at home hoping for the best.
We bought a food processor and blender after my surgery. We’ve literally blended anything and everything😂 we baked a chicken pot pie and thinned it out with chicken stock and turned it into a soup by tossing it in the food processor. I’m lactose intolerant so I’m really limited to my choices lol
I actually got 6 wisdom teeth removed 4 days ago and I’m so freaking miserable. You have no idea how much of my happiness comes from eating this is torture
2:08 min. 👍🏼After 2 DAYs, age 20’s I had little pain. WHEN u’r ready to eat slowly more reg to soft foods I slow sipped on water between bites. This gently cleansed!👍🏼
I got my wisdom teeth removed today, had a mocha frappe 5hrs after the extraction. Doctor suggested to not have rice at all as we think its soft and ok to consume, but gets lodged in the socket. So I cooked rice and lentils, cooled it, blended and drank. Its protein rich so keeps me full and don’t have many options, so just have to make it work. Planning on eating banana smoothie, oats porridge blended, scrambled egg, cottage cheese, yoghurt, protein shakes, guacamole (if I add onion and garlic, will blend it for sure) , dip and eat bread in cold coffee for the next 7 days.. 👍🏼
i'm starving so much, i'm so sick of eating oatmeal and soups, i'm barley 5 days in and i still can't chew comfortably, i was 107 pounds before the procedure and now i'm 104 :/
For such a simple and common procedure, recovery takes such a long time for wisdom teeth. I’m on day 5 after having all 4 removed and feel completely fine other than slight soreness and I’m dying for some pizza or pork belly.
I’m on day number one post-op and holy hell it hurts. Even my smoothies and shakes hurts to swallow. I’m glad I learned to stay away from seeds the last thing anyone of us wants is another infection and getting re-opened.
I got two of mine removed 7 hrs ago I feel nothing and I like that I a was expecting a lot of pain but luckily so far not much. I want some chicken tho so bad I'm hungry 😩 I guess hungry is better than feeling miserable so I'm blessed thank you God
Thank you doc. I’m pushing 50 and has one wisdom tooth removed since it was a cavity. I pushed it off for 6 months - fear - but finally for it done today. It was causing me discomfort in my head / neck and am looking forward to moving on. Thank you for providing this valuable information.
Today: Extraction of 1 and 9 Implant on 3 Bone graft on 9 Fibroma removal on left cheek by 19th Feeling pretty good, no need for strong drugs, ibuprofen only and antibiotic, not my 1st rodeo😅😭. Mashed potatoes and liver patte from Trader Joes today. I noticed, the moment u can't have certain foods, it's just what u WANT, NOW!!! Wishing you all a great recovery 🙏🏻 !
Dr Choi is the very Best in the business, he pulled my widom a few years ago and my recovery was smooth, quicker than expected. I also had to have another unexpected extraction on a premolar yesterday which was a lost cause cavity, meaning no filling would help not even the pulpotomy that was done on it by my other dentist who should have caught the cavity a lot sooner since I always saw him every 6 months without fail( maybe he needs to use 3D xrays) when a simple filling would have sufficed. I went back to Dr. Choi who is an oral surgeon and he did an impeccable job as always. IT was a very hard pull probably due to the prior work the old dentist did trying to salvage the tooth but again I am healing fine. Dr. Choi knows his craft and is very pleasant too.
Got my horizontally impacted right bottom wisdom tooth removed 3 days back. The plan was to remove both the right bottom and upper tooth, but couldn't happen. The bottom tooth was much more difficult to remove than the X Ray suggested and the root was close to some nerve ( that's what the surgeon told me). It took 1.5 hours of cutting, drilling, and cranking with all tools to remove it. Unfortunately, the process was excruciating. The doctor gave me local anesthesia three times and even that didn't help. By the time it was removed I was so exhausted that I was shaking and couldn't stand up. Lesson learnt: I am never getting my wisdom tooth removed again without sedative or GA 😭
Same exact thing happened to me. Except they just pulled that shit. It was 15 20 min of hell . I though I was going to pass out. I had to really focus not to pass out
Had a similar experience yesterday. The procedure took a whole hour. At some point, I had to be given Pethidine; it calmed me a bit but the pain was excruciating all the same. Been spooning smoothie and Greek yogurt since yesterday. Craving all kinds of food but can't even dare.
the both roots of my wisdom tooth were holding my nerve, it hug the nerve . even after more and more local anesthesia, including the one which injected to the bone, those were not helping . i could feel every touch. the vibration was directly sent to the nerve, my jaws feels like after being punched. the dentist and nurses were guilty alot watching me trembling to cry during 1 hours procedure . at the end. the dentist free me from any charge. yay!, i got impacted wisdom tooth removal free of charge . after 3 hours from the surgery, my jaw move normally, no hurt, less swelling. the dentist did the great job.
Hhhh, I thought it was only me, It took more than one hour to remove it and they shaked me until I am exhausted, I m astill swelling and it's one week 😭😭😭
I’ll have all four removed tomorrow and this is so interesting as my doctor urged me to not eat any dairy because it apparently causes infections especially while on antibiotics
I wish I would have gone to a practice like yours. You seem very good with anxious patients, which I am. A good bedside manner. Today, I had my wisdom tooth extraction done in Bartonville, TX, and it was one of the worst experiences I've ever had with a doctor. The doctor was yelling at me for asking questions... :(
I think you should make a entire list of foods that you CAN NOT eat at all till the extracted area is healed and drinks and not example foods, that way people will be more careful for sure.
3 days post op- and I avoid anything too hard, crunchy, or chewy. I've been living off mashed potatoes. scrambled eggs, soups and my favorite smoothies- and oh this kriss says I should avoid using straws-- why is that ?
I had to have a tooth removed 4 days ago. I’ve been eating butternut squash, scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, jello, Nutella, and marshmallow fluff. I really want a cup of tea, but I’m afraid to drink something hot.
I just had my wisdom teeth removed today and tried to eat scrambled eggs, that didn't go so well. Foods that can dissolve on your tongue is the way to go.
I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed, and got stiches for the bottom 2. Currently on day 6 and I am craving EVERYTHING!!! I wish I can just pig out at Korean bbq or eat some church’s fried chicken or chili cheese fries 😭 I’ve only been eating miso soup, Greek yogurt, apple sauce and drinking ensure. I don’t want to risk dry socket or getting an infection so I’m waiting until 2 weeks to start eating solids. CAN’T WAIT!!!!
UPDATE: it’s been about 2 1/2 weeks since I got my wisdom teeth removed. I’m slowly starting to feel more comfortable eating solids, but still being cautious and trying to not chew near the extraction site. 👍
@@Vietbaddiehow long until you comfortably started eating without caution? did you have to get cleared by your dentist to make sure you could chew anything like normal?
I recently turned 21 & just got 4 of mine removed yesterday (I'm currently serving in the Airforce). It's been crazy for awhile, but honestly I'm getting better. My friend who drove told me the doctor's words that "I'm the perfect patient" because they had no issues with me & didn't deal with bone shards at all. They did my surgery in less than an hour!! It's crazy. Also I like the background music, name?
Hi, from Liverpool UK 🇬🇧😁. I am 40 years of age... Nearly. I was told a couple of years ago by my tooth doctor that I never had any wisdom teeth. Roll back to about 6 weeks ago, I had a terrible time with my back tooth. I've got TMD, and my tooth cracked due to this, so my tooth wasn't actually impacted. Anyway, after weeks of hell, and I mean hell, major infection in the tooth, course of amoxycillen, then metronidazole... I finally had it pulled Thursday just gone. The pain is still kicking about and it's horrendous! Who knew a tooth could give you so much aggro 😕🦷👀🥺
Is mashed banana mixed with yoghurt okay? And also avocado? I don't feel full with just the soups so I'm looking for fulfilling healthy foods that is soft 😂
pain ain’t bad man but hunger is what’s gonna drive you crazy. just sleep and occupy your mind with like a show or video games. wait it out cuz dry socket is no joke
@@kakukikuthe bottom right one is till hurting me bad every time i bite down or open my mouth to wide its hurts me its still hurts constantly but not as much, also i dont know if its supposed to be like this but they kinda sew the inside of my cheek to the cut is it supposed to be like that i think that explains why its still hurting so much
@@happyblackout4485 It's not supposed to be that painful and the seams are closed perfectly, that's in my case after meeting my doctor last week. Hope it's not a dry socket or something worse. Just go see your doctor.
Had my lower wisdom tooth removed (element 48) and 3 jabs in the gums to numb the area. Sadly the tooth broke and they also had to cut the roots before the lower part came off. No pain meds needed. Its sore but not aweful. Lots of cold compress cooling. First evening just has some onion soup. Second evening lasagna. To whoever is reading this and is nervous. The pain will go away and this will save you from having pain or worse symptoms in the future.
I just go my wisdom teeth out and I can barely open my mouth enough to even put a spoon in. I can see my jaw bone on the bottom left, and I don't know if I should see my doctor. That bottom left side is so tender and sore even when I ice it and take my meds. I wash with salt water after eating, and it doesn't help. I've been eating pudding and broth mostly and puréed veggies. What should I do?
I would still go in and see the doc on monday and have him take a look. in the meantime, keep icing all weekend. do salt water rinses in the meantime. take your antibiotics and pain meds on the clock
So what happened? If you can see the bone in the open socket or an adjacent tooth down inside, it likely means the blood clot has dissolved or dislodged. Final outcome?
I got my tooth removed 10 years ago and the blood clot came out when I was yelling at someone and Vicodin didn't even help with the pain it took 4 days and 2 prescription of antibiotics to get better. This Friday I woke up with Jaw pain by Monday which was Yesterday the infection was in my throat, they pulled my tooth yesterday, and I started taking Antibiotics and sipping 1/2 water 1/2 lemon aid mix when I got home, I took Tylenol because they prescribed Ibuprofen which I can not take, and everything was closed. By midnight I had taken 2nd antibiotic, 8oz water down lemon aide and a Tylenol I was able to go to sleep with little pain, and by today taking the antibiotics Tylenol, and drinking waterdown lemon aid I feel much better, I was able to eat mashed potato's with gravy, 2 steak fingers, a onion 1/2 soft bun and tea, chewing on the good side taking my time and being Very careful chewing and swallowing, it was the first real food since Saturday night. I was able to go outside and water my yard and tend to my fish pond. If you want to know what makes the difference it's the blood clot, Make sure you don't pull it out with the gaze, don't go to sleep with the gaze in your mouth, slowly sip everything you drink, and don't eat anything until 24 hour later, don't brush your teeth or rinse your mouth, or mess with it, just rest don't even talk, and try not to lose the blood clot within the first 24 hours. If you loss the blood clot it will be very painful for days and take longer to heal. Once the bleeding slows and the blood looks thicker than it will clot, which you should stop using the gaze or it could pull the blood clot out when you remove it. Look at the blood and notice the difference, when it looks thicker stop using the gaze. Good luck to any of you reading this in the future looking for help.
It’s been over a week since I got both of my wisdom teeth removed. Just the bottom ones. I still can’t open my mouth that much and it’s made it hard for me to brush both my teeth and tongue. I still can’t chew on anything either. I’m stuck with liquids and I’m so over it. I’m craving a burger so bad 😭. I don’t know how much longer until I’ll be able to eat normal again.
I am diebetic and got my wisdom tooth remove. It took way longer for me to heal. 1st day - pain, no swelling, eat soup. 2nd day - pain+, swelling+, eat poridge. 3rd day - pain++, swelling++, cant eat. 4th day - pain+++, swellimg+++, fever. 5th day - antibiotic+, pain++, swelling++ 6th day - swelling ++, pain 7th day - still swelling++ I havent eaten solid food, and I am afraid coming to work while still having swelling.
I got my wisdom teeth op yesterday wit an complicated things, glad to cath this video before and after op so i learn lot of things, and be prepared well, so now it painless, even imma bit starving,thanku
Just had to get partial dry socket packed because some food got stuck... 😢 I tried being careful but seriously, DON'T EAT RICE OR ANYTHING YOU REALLY HAVE TO CHEW. I'm pretty sure that and not properly resting for the first two days so I had raised blood pressure resulted in this complication. Luckily my dentist was great, he flushed and packed the remaining hole and it should be better in 2 - 3 days. I'm going to be a lot more careful this time. Yogurt, soup like broth or chowder (thicker but no chunks), mashed potatoes, ice cream, etc. That's it for me this weekend 😅
Got all 4 out yesterday morning. ITS IMPORTANT TO ICE THE SAME DAY, very important! Please do it since you won’t swell as much (if any) the next following days.
Thinking of just fasting to be honest. Obviously drink my electrolytes and water but yeah I'm too paranoid and don't want anymore infections ugh not my wisdom teeth but 4 really bad cavities I've had for years. So glad to get them out but praying they heal properly. Eventually going to get partials so I can finally chew with my back teeth. 👐
I’m getting my horizontal bottom wisdom tooth removed, my jaw is constantly hurting as are my molars next to it. I’m looking forward to getting it out, I’m just nervous for the numbing needle 😬 in the uk we don’t have that gas that Americans use 🦷 I kind of wish we did though
What about patients that have sutures? I had strawberries in a smoothie today for the first time and you mentioned foods with seeds.. and strawberries didn't even cross my mind! Please advise!
Now repeat after me. “ Oh lord, whatever mistake i made in this lifetime, let it pass and give me forgiveness and mercy when i meet you.” 😂😂Just chill and keep a watch. Rinse ur mouth well.
I got my 4 wisdom teeth removed 2 days ago and I just turned 15 😭😭. literally couldn’t open my mouth enough for a spoon..I had to use a straw to drink my cream of wheat, and apple juice for like the first day lol. By the second day I ate mash potatoes but I got annoyed and I switched to noodles which was good. And today I ate pancakes and eggs. I still couldn’t really open my mouth so.. yeah. I did eat all my eggs though! I got a prescription for a mouth rinse with a syringe but I used warm water and tsp of salt after every food I eat. I used the prescription only when I wake up and before I sleep Edit: idk if I did anything to my blood clot cause after the surgery I apparently teleported to the car.... 💀💀💀 but I didn’t realize I was in the car till I check the time at like 3pm and I remembered my surgery started at 12pm. So I’m not sure how long the surgery was but I think that was enough to form a blood clot right? I had gauze in my mouth and like around that time it was completely covered in blood and I was confused why I was bleeding. But I tried changing it but I kinda started crying cause I didn’t know what I was doing and I was still on the meds they put me to sleep with, and I was numbed at the same time not numb cause it was wearing off… so idk if it formed.😅😀😀😃 I had oozing like at night with blood and spit but today I had a little bit of blood but I’m not bleeding or anything. There’s a little bit here and there but I think I’m ok
I've just got 3 tooth extraction yesterday, and I just drinks milk for 24 hours and I now so tired so I just swallow chopped steaks whole without chewing, almost passed out.
