Hello, Thanks for your query. Directly following wisdom tooth extraction, there may even be difficulty swallowing, so it is best to consume liquids, including water, energy drinks, juices, smoothies, and shakes, etc. In all phases of recovery, it is important to stay well-hydrated, so be sure to drink roughly five to eight glasses of these liquids per day. When you feel ready to eat solid foods, it is best to begin with softer things like heavier smoothies, soups, pudding, gelatin, and yogurt. When the pain and discomfort of chewing has lessened more, you may be able to eat soft breads, eggs, and thicker, more hearty soups. Pureed foods are also a great option at this point because they are so easy to eat. These include applesauce, mashed potatoes and gravy, cottage cheese, and hummus. There are also things to avoid in your diet following wisdom tooth removal, especially during the day directly after extraction. To avoid aggravating the pain and soreness, tough or chewy foods should not be consumed. Any foods with small grains or seeds should be avoided, as these grains and seeds can easily become lodged in the tooth removal site, causing irritation. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
