    Liquid diet for tonite only ...return to your regular diet tommorow...do not drink through a straw....eat soft foods like mashed potatoes or a bowl of soup....(but 1st remove the gauze)...the bleeding will let up in about 6 hours so don't worry about that to much...when your done eating ...wash your mouth out with lukewarm water with just a teaspoon of salt....do not swallow it....this will keep the food from getting down into the holes left after the extraction....the last thing you want is an infection caused by food particles filling those holes....the holes will fill in and be even with the gum line in about 2 months...so take it easy for at least 2 days.....

    Been there....done that.
