And im getting tired of eating Pudding and mashed potatoes, I figure im not the only one who has been in this predicament. What did everyone else eat?

i was in boot camp when i had mine pulled. i had two peices of gause in my mouth and open wounds. so i had to eat chow hall crap like jello, pudding, macaroni salad, potato salad, oh and blood, probably swallowed more blood than food. i also didn't take any pain killers.

Yeah mine wont stop bleeding.. and I dont feel like cramming my mouth full of gauss to make it stop.

I just got all mine pulled out during christmas break, and you should know this already but in case you dont STAY THE **** AWAY FROM STRAWS
thats probably the best advice ever haha. but now that i think about it...all i ate the entire time was soup, pasta, lots of icecream, pretty much anything that cant get stuck in the sockets. Thats a horrible feeling, knowing that there is food in the sockets but after many attempts and pain you cant remove them =/

Had mine pulled in the service also. Only problem was my buddy was kind enough to take me to the store. While still doped up, I managed to buy an electric razor, cookies, and 3 gallons of ice cream. All would be good, if i happened to have a freezer in my dorm room, which i didnt. Woke up to a nice surprise the next day. Soft food works good. Im sure they told you to stay away from smokes, since they can cause a dry socket. I bleed like a stuck pig for days too. My advice, carry around a spitter. Oh and dont eat french fries. They hurt like the dickens. You can tearing some bread into small pieces and rolling it up into little *****. Mash it with your tongue. It at least is something solid.

Had mine pulled a couple years ago. Ate soup.....and blood, couldn't get mine to stop bleeding for days and eventually I quit trying with the gauss. And X2 for whoever said carry around something to spit in. Fortunately I only had three pulled because as the orthodontist put it I "got jipped out of a wisdom tooth".

You have to be hard core bro, I was fucked up after that. If you don't put that stuff in your mouth to stop the bleeding, you're gonna get dry sockets. I hear they suck *** too!

Had my pulled a few years years ago. Same thing everyone else said....mashed taters, soup, jello, pudding, ramen noodles. I was lucky cause mine only bled for a day or two and wasnt that bad, though I did take pain killers for a couple days. They gave me a large plastic syringe to rinse out the sockets after a day or two of healing.

i got mine pulled like 3 years ago and they had to extract them so i was dopped up pretty good the first few days. Just dont use straws because you will pull out the scabs forming in the sockets. As far as food i ate whatever i wanted after the first day.

Did they give you a syringe to clean out the holes from the teeth? When i had mine pulled they gave me one to clean after every meal and let me tell you there was a lot of food in there, if you dont clean it you'll get infected/dry sockets.

I think since I cant smoke for a few days im just going to go ahead and take this time and to try and quit. But eating all that soft stuff just doesnt fill me up so I was wondering if there was any secrets im missing out on lol. But they did a something where they filled the wholes with my own blood plasma so no cleaning.

had mine pulled the week before christmas, which sucked. not to mention they didnt knock me out when they did it, BUT that laughing gas was awesome. maybe i'll have to start inhaling cool whip cans or somethin lol. anyways yeah carry a pan around with you, it makes life alot easier. i remember it didnt stop bleeding for like 4 days. just be sure to keep the gauze, dont smoke or use straws. as far as food all i had were pudding cups, mashed potatoes, ramen noodles, and sometimes ice cream. i remember trying to sell my soul for a cheeseburger.....but it never came !

Over the last 10 years a few different dentists have told me I need mine pulled, but I tell each one, "the last dentist told me that". X-Rays show the bottom ones are completely sideways pointed straight at my molars. My wisdom teeth have not moved in 10+ years and I have yet to feel an ounce of pain from them or any of my other teeth for that matter. Knock on wood.

i just got mine pulled about 3-4 weeks ago, and my jaw still hurts everynow and then, i still can't open my mouth up very well to eat a burger or anything like that. I actually lost probably about 15lbs the first 2 weeks because i was so doped up on lortab that i didn't even feel like eating very much. The easiest thing i found to eat that was solid was a grilled cheese sandwich and dip it in some tomato or chicken noodle soup to help soften it up alittle bit.

Just wait till you go back and he gives you the syringe to clean out the holes, you wouldn't believe some of the stuff that will come out of there..
