This largely depends on the type of dental procedure you’ve had. You will often need to adjust your eating and drinking habits temporarily. For instance, after a tooth extraction or oral surgery, SmileWorks Dental Kensington recommends sticking to soft foods and liquids for a few days to allow the treatment area to heal.
You should avoid hot food or drink until the local anaesthetic has worn off, as you might burn your mouth without realising it. Also, refrain from eating on the side of your mouth where the procedure was done to prevent any discomfort or damage.
For procedures like teeth whitening, you may be asked to avoid certain foods and drinks that could stain your teeth, such as coffee, tea, red wine, and highly pigmented foods like berries, for a couple of days.
Following the specific post-procedure instructions your dentist provides at SmileWorks Dental Kensington is important. If you have any concerns or questions, please contact us. The dental team is here to support you and ensure you have the best possible post-treatment experience.

Dentists often recommend scheduling a comprehensive dental check-up and cleaning every six months to ensure optimal oral health.
