Post teeth extraction day 5

Five days after the wisdom teeth came out and the swelling is much improved. Finishing off the last of the antibiotics the dentist prescribed and weaning myself off the ibuprofen.

Still eating mostly soft foods. Still have to be careful of food getting stuck where teeth used to be. A gentle swishing and rinsing with some warm water after eating usually takes care of that though.

Biggest problem now is that my molars hurt (the ones that are left) and are pretty temperature sensitive, particularly the on the lower right. Makes chewing difficult. Still, I think I’m making pretty decent progress healing up. Ready to be back to normal though.
