🦷 Eating After Dental Implant Surgery 🦷

After your procedure, soft foods are key. Choose mild, easy-to-eat options that won’t disturb the surgical site and will support proper healing.

➡️ Best foods during recovery:
• Yogurt, applesauce, oatmeal, mashed potatoes
• Scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, soft or flaky fish
• Protein shakes or smoothies (no straws)
• Soups and broths served warm—not hot

➡️ Foods to skip for now:
• Crunchy or hard foods like chips, nuts, toast, and crackers
• Foods with sharp edges that could irritate the area •
Spicy or very hot foods early in healing

➡️ Recovery tips:
• Drink plenty of fluids
• Opt for smaller meals if chewing feels tiring
• Chew on the opposite side until advised otherwise
• Avoid straws to protect healing tissue

When it comes to recovery, simple, soft foods go a long way.

Tooth loss doesn’t just change how your smile looks; it can affect your jaw strength, shift surrounding teeth, and limit the foods you enjoy. Over time, these changes can impact your facial structure, comfort, and overall oral health.

Replace missing teeth at the root with dental implants 🦷. They help maintain jawbone health while offering a stable, natural-looking solution that feels just like your own teeth.

Book your dental implant consultation and invest in a smile designed to last for decades. https://www.atlanticomfs.com/procedures/dental-implants/

What is dry socket?
Dry socket occurs when the protective blood clot comes loose after a tooth extraction, exposing the bone and causing discomfort. 🦷

The good news? It’s often preventable! Follow your post-op instructions and take it easy for the first few days; a little extra care goes a long way toward a smooth, pain-free recovery.
