Can I eat egg custard after having a tooth extracted?

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Guo Huijie
It is recommended not to eat egg custard after tooth extraction. After a tooth is removed, the surrounding area becomes more vulnerable, and the high temperature of egg custard may damage the teeth; therefore, it is best to avoid eating egg custard post-extraction. Gum inflammation commonly occurs after tooth extraction, making teeth more susceptible to external damage. The high temperature of egg custard can further irritate the area and worsen dental injury.
