Suggest Suitable Diet For One Undergoing Teeth Removal

Next Tuesday, 5 Aug, I am getting all upper teeth removed (only 9 left) and one lower. Also they will reduce a decent sized hard torus from the upper hard palate. I am comfortable with what they have been telling me so far, but I have yet to really zero-in on what sort of diet I may be able to eat. I did get some 1/2 inch drinking straws and reg size, too. I know all about Ensure {I have diverticulitis} and have laid in a supply. I'm looking at smoothies and stuff, too.
Any other ideas and/or links ??
Thanks

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The diet after extraction includes, soft bland diet like bread, milk..(any thing which is not spiry, hard and non sticky). Do not use straw to drink any liquids because it creates negative pressure and dislodges the clot and may induce bleeding. You can take clod things more for first two days. After the third day, you can stick on to normal diet.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
