Ok im starving. i had an emergency root canal due to an infection in my tooth which traveled to another tooth?

i found out that i had a really bad infection on tooth 9 n 10 my front tooth on the left side and the one next to it. 9(one next to big front tooth) they had to do an emergency root canal/extraction. before i went to sleep i decided to take a look at the abscess. i freaked out because i have never had anything like this wrong with my teeth. the gum was so swollen that it had turned into a bubble and was covering about half of my tooth. very scary looking. this morning when i got up i started tasing some salty stuff so i went to take another look. the bubble was oozing puss from the gum. i put some gauze there and kept changing it till it stopped leaking. i am so hungry but i do not want to irritate the tooth... i really cant wait to eat regular food. what can i eat now that will atleast semi fill me up that will not hurt my teeth. i have only been drinking room temp water. dentists please help me they said i could go back to my reg diet but im not to sure of that since the root canal

I just got from my dentist twenty minutes ago myself.I hope your dentist gave you some antibiotics cause you need them badly.Now if your hungry and afraid to eat you should try some mashed potaoes.There filling and you can even get the instant kind.You can try soups,oatmeal,cottage cheese,yogurt or pudding.Jello works too.You can let these things cool down or warm up if you need to.Applesauce is good to.Make sure you get some antibiotics.And the more you look at it the worse you'll feel so stop looking at it(i know it's hard not to)Good luck
Reply:Have you tried drinking a milkshake with a straw? Make sure you put the straw into your mouth far enough that you will not get anything on your sore area.
Reply:Eat Jello or make banana shake ...





I had 4 wisdom teeth pulled out and I was like you so swollen and so hungry ... I mean SO HUNGRY that I took out a blender and threw mayo and tuna in it to blend it so I could eat ...





I couldn't have soup cuz it was too hot to eat ...





Giving you ideas ... Blender or food processors does help! I don't care what others say about it! Food is food!
