25 Soft Foods After Dental Surgery: What to Eat & Avoid
After dental surgery, choose foods that are smooth, moist and easy to swallow with little or no chewing. Yogurt, applesauce, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, pureed soup, oatmeal, avocado and seed-free smoothies are usually practical options. Avoid hard, crunchy, sticky, spicy or very hot foods while the surgical area is healing.
