Total extraction

I am going to have a complete mouth extraction and I need advice to manage blood glucose, since liquid and soft diets (pure) are very high in carbohydrates, thank you in advance for your advice and experiences.

It is true that after a total extraction, soft diets are usually loaded with carbohydrates, but making homemade purees with vegetables such as zucchini, pumpkin or broccoli can help keep blood glucose more controlled, in addition to combining it with some pureed protein such as chicken or very well crushed fish. It can also be useful to divide meals into smaller portions so as not to overload the body too much at once and thus help prevent sugar from getting out of control.

Inflammation and medications, especially pain relievers or antibiotics you are prescribed, can also affect glucose levels. It is important to be aware and take the usual measures to avoid hyperglycemia.

Finally, some here comment that staying in close contact with the endocrinologist or diabetes educator on those days helps to adjust the guideline a little if necessary, something that doesn't hurt when eating habits change so much.

Do you already have your post-extraction meal planned or are you looking for ideas to prepare it?

Greetings,

Llevo dos implantes, el ultimo lo termine en junio, y no he tedido problemas ni con la extracción, ni con puntos ni con el implante en si.

Los primeros dias pues comes blando no caliente e intentar comer por el otro lado.

Las glucemias a mi no se m han alterado.

@Anaisabel Supongo que cada persona puede reaccionar diferente, sobre todo según el control que se tenga de la diabetes y la respuesta inflamatoria. Me parece muy útil la recomendación de comer blando y evitar alimentos calientes al principio, así también se protege mejor la zona.

Además, lo de comer por el lado contrario me parece clave para evitar molestias. ¿Cómo gestionaste la medicación y el manejo del dolor esos primeros días?

A veces tengo dudas sobre cómo ajustar todo sin que las glucemias se descontrolen demasiado.

Saludos,

You will have to eat everything in purees. The surgeon will tell you how to do it. Luck!!
