How long after a tooth extraction can I eat on that side?
Typically you can start eating soft food 48 hrs after the extraction. Before that, I recommend smoothies, omelettes, and very easy to swallow food. If it was a difficult extraction, be careful not to eat foods that will aggravate the area. READ MORE
