The same thing is done if you\u2019re getting a dental crown. However, the adhesive attaching these to your teeth isn\u2019t very strong. Your dentist will sometimes put you on a so-called \u201csoft food diet\u201d while you\u2019re wearing these placeholders, so you won\u2019t be at risk of having your temporary set fall off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, there isn\u2019t a set list of the foods that you can eat, and some of the obvious picks are pretty unhealthy. If you are feeling a little bit lost, here are three healthy options you can have on a soft foods diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Soft Fruits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re on any kind of restricted diet, it can be hard to manage a sweet tooth. A soft food diet wouldn\u2019t preclude ice cream and frozen yogurt, but those aren\u2019t exactly healthy. Soft fruits like bananas and strawberries are easy on your teeth and aren\u2019t packed with calories. You can also try blending these fruits into a smoothie, which can be a nice healthy option (especially if you add healthy fats and protein into the mix).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting your protein on a soft food diet can be a little bit tough, considering most staple meats are on the chewier side. Fish can be a delicious way to get the nutrients you need. Salmon cooked to perfection melts in the mouth. Paired with a simple pan sauce of dill and capers, or a quick honey lemon glaze, it can make for a delicious weeknight meal. Fish are also rich in good cholesterol, which can improve your heart health. Besides, they\u2019re a much more appetizing source of protein than throwing a chicken breast into a blender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scrambled Eggs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The truth is, just about any style of egg should be soft enough to eat without chewing (so long as they aren\u2019t burned). However, if you want the silkiest eggs possible, they\u2019ve got to be scrambled. Whisk a few up with some milk, salt, and pepper, and you\u2019ll have a delicious breakfast in moments. They also present a fun challenge\u2013 there\u2019s a bit of technique involved in getting the eggs as fluffy as they can be. Find a tutorial online, and see just how soft you can get them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Switching to a soft food diet doesn\u2019t mean eating nothing but ice cream. Instead, focus on finding meals that are both nutritious and easy to chew!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. David Lloyd is a highly experienced dentist who has served his community for decades, providing the people of Daytona Beach with dental care that keeps them smiling.
