How long after tooth extraction can I eat spicy food?

Generally, 4 to 6 weeks after tooth extraction, the mouth heals well and spicy foods can be consumed, but one should avoid eating overly spicy food, as it may interfere with oral healing and worsen dental discomfort. Usually, within 2 to 3 weeks after extraction, patients can resume eating regular foods, though very hard foods should still be avoided. After tooth extraction, when inflammation occurs in the mouth and teeth are sensitive, patients should eat mild,清淡 foods such as vegetables, fruits, and porridge. These foods are nutritious, gentle in flavor, and do not excessively irritate oral inflammation, thus promoting recovery.
