What are good foods to get a friend after they have their wisdom teeth pulled?
Jello, mashed potatoes, ice cream, anything soft.


Not soup, because most people slurp their soup and that brings air into her mouth which can effect the clot.


If she's on pain medicine, she may not even want to eat. She'll probably sleep all day.


But she's lucky to have a friend like you!
Reply:I swore by sugar free popsicles when I got mine pulled. Some say soups and stews, but it hurt the site and the heat irritated me. It's kida dicey within the first 24 hours, but yougurt and other "cool" items seem to cause the least amount of irritation.
Reply:Mashed Potato's


Apple Sauce








Just anything soft. Actually, some of the baby foods are really tasty. The sweets at least. I wouldn't go for the vegies! LOL!

Reply:The best way to maintain a normal diet is for your friend to cook normally and blend the food in a blender (as most foods can be blended) similar to babies food, the texture may seem unpleasant at first, but it will taste the same and it is important to maintain a healthy diet, especially if the person is unwell or just had surgery.





Good Luck
Reply:Make sure they DON"T use a STRAW for drinks.


Don't want to risk dry socket!





I always preferred applesauce and pudding.
Reply:Smoothies with protein powder. Make sure that they are thin enough that your friend doesn't have to use a straw to drink. They are great because they give you the protein, dairy, fruit, and carb that you need to heal, if you use the right ingredients! Try using applejuice or applesauce and yogurt as your base. Then, use fresh fruits or thawed frozen ones. The frozen kind might make the smoothie too thick.





Baby pears are actually pretty good, too!





Avoid hot foods like mac n cheese or soups. They can irriate your friend's stitches.





Oatmeal is another good one, if you let it cool some. If your friend was under anesthesia, they might be a bit constipated, so high fiber foods can be particularly great!





I hope that helps!
