Had some dental work done recently and was kinda nervous about keeping things clean afterward. But following my dentist's advice (soft brush, gentle rinses, etc.) really helped. Healing went quicker than expected, honestly. Anyone else had good luck with this kinda thing?
"Healing went quicker than expected, honestly."
Glad to hear it went smoothly for you. I found that sticking to lukewarm foods and drinks helped me a lot too—nothing too hot or cold. Did your dentist mention anything about diet during recovery? Curious if that's common advice...
That's interesting, actually. I've noticed dentists tend to vary a bit on dietary advice—some emphasize temperature, others focus more on texture. I remember one patient who swore by smoothies and lukewarm soups, while another insisted cold yogurt was soothing. Makes me wonder if personal comfort plays a bigger role than strict guidelines. Did anyone else find certain foods unexpectedly helpful or irritating during recovery? Curious how much individual differences factor into this...
