Smoothies are a fantastic way to get a nutrient-rich meal without chewing. Blend fruits, vegetables, and protein powder for a tasty and satisfying drink. Avoid adding seeds or hard chunks that might irritate your surgical site.

Soft, creamy mashed potatoes (regular or sweet) are a filling option that’s easy on the mouth. You can add butter or gravy for extra flavor, but be sure they’re not too hot as the temperature can affect healing.

Warm broths and smooth soups are great for staying hydrated and getting essential nutrients. Stick to smooth, blended soups without chunks of meat or vegetables, and make sure they’re not too hot to avoid irritating the area around your implants.

Soft and easy to swallow, oatmeal or cream of wheat is a great choice for breakfast or a snack. Opt for instant oats or finely ground cereals, and feel free to add a little honey or soft fruit for flavor.

Yogurt (preferably without fruit chunks) and pudding are excellent choices because they’re cold, smooth, and soothing. Plus, yogurt provides probiotics that are great for gut health and can support overall recovery.

• Crunchy or hard foods (chips, nuts, raw veggies)
