Hello, I would go to the local denist. I am sure you rather get it fix then continue to worry. Good luck with your decision.

I love rice krispie treats. The chocolate chunk one is by far my favorite one .

NinjaNoodle, I got 4 wisdom teeth pulled in Nov. 2006, so I know you can not wait to feel normal again. Use ice pack for the swelling. I think you can only apply them for about 15 minutes at a time though. It took about five days for my swelling to go away. Don't forget to do the salt water rinsing ...

You will be fine. Good luck and I can not wait to hear your story .

WoW!!! Great progress. Your going to have a beautiful smile.

Guess what...I ate a rice krispie today. I had no problems eating it either.

Thanks Everyone,

I love cracklins!!! I am from the South and they are very known item that way. I have not had any in a while though. I eat mine with Hot sauce. Yummy!!!

Thanks Meryaten, I am glad to hear that with the use of common sense I can eat just about anything. My Ortho said no candy or sticky foods, but he gave me an apple on the way out the door. He said to cut it up in little pieces and no biting into things. I guess I am nervous but this is a new process...

Thanks, have anyone been risky enough to eat nuts? I am really glad to hear that I can eat rice krispy. Can we eat rasins? Can we eat veggie chips? They are crunchy. They are one of my favorite snacks. I hope this is not a silly. Is the reason we can not eat hard is b/c of the teeth been loose?

I have a sweet tooth . What do you eat for desert? Please share. Can I have a rice krispy treat?

Hello, Yes, it is normal to be nervous. I got braced on Dec. 21st and I was so nervous. I missed my Ortho parking lot three times. Mind you that I been there serveral time. There is nothing to be nervous about seriously. Earlier in the week, I questioned myself as to whether I made the right choice....

Thanks lionfish, I will give solid foods a try. I hope every had a Merry Xmas. Good night .

Thanks Everyone, I know it wil get better thanks to this forum. I can not wait to say I ate a cookie. I did manage to eat some potato salad (yummy) and some sweet potato pie. I guess I should not complain, at least I am able to chew somewhat better now. I never thought eating could be so sloppy thou...

Merry Xmas Everyone, I hope you all are eating for me. I feel so left out. My mouth is still very tender. This morning, I ate scrambled eggs covered in cheese and of course it hurt to try to chew so I just swallowed. I feel like it is useless to try to eat now days. Eating is no longer fun and I am ...

Thanks Mike and KK, I will check out the soft food list. I had been looking for it. I really hope the soreness goes away soon, right now it hurts to eat a banana. This morning, I had a shake with a banana. Later on I will try oatmeal. No Xmas cookies and other goodies for me :(. Now I wish I would h...
