Answers:
Milkshakes, babyfood is good and comes in a greater variety.. the baby snack puffs and crackers will melt slowly in your mouth..
Soups
You can freeze the applesauce in icecube trays and then make it into slushy drinks (add a cherry on top):)
hard boiled eggs that are smashed up too..
you might be able to eat more things if you cut it up very very finely so you can swallow without much chewing..Health Question & Answer

Google "wired jaw diet"..

Make sure each day you have:
* Two or more cups of milk
* Two or more servings of meat or eggs
* Four or more servings of cereal
* Four or more servings of fruit and /or vegetables

Jello and applesauce WILL NOT help you heal.. You need proteins to heal properly, and calcium..Health Question & Answer
