My son is having his wisdom teeth removed on Monday and was just wondering if anyone has gone through this with their kids already. Any advice on good foods to eat afterwards, I'm thinking jello and ice cream. Also what should I expect to deal with after the surgery, pain wise etc.
My 18 yr old had his removed in March. He was really loopy when I brought him home and slept for a few hours. He only took pain meds for a day, then was fine with advil. No swelling. It went very smooth. My oldest was the same way. He had his removed three yrs ago.
Most importantly, follow the instructions. No straws, rinse with salt water, but do not swoosh..(that was the hardest part for my sons) and no excercise for a few days.
My sons ate: Smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, scrambled eggs, jello, ice cream, mashed potatoes, pudding, soup and stuffing.
Good Luck!
I had my wisdom teeth removed and i had no pain after my mom had me eat no sweets for a week cause my doc said no but i still had some like chocolate but like a kiss or something like that to suck on so i could rinse out the blood but i dont think thats a good idea for you to do i did it cause im fast at healing so ya also make sure that he is carefull when he brushs or he is going to hurt himself and start to bleed.... food all goes on if its the top or not.
I had mine taken out about 10 years ago. One was impacted and they did surgery for 2 others because they were grown into the jaw. Within a day I was eating normally. First day I just wasn't hungry.
My dd had all her wisdom teeth pulled at the same time [sigh] It was awful, the pain was unbearable but I'm glad its over. [sigh]
