After a difficult extraction a soft or liquid diet may be indicated for 24 hours or so after your dental surgery. For simpler extractions just making sure that you do your chewing with those teeth that are distant from the extraction site should be sufficient. Hot liquids will tend to dissolve the blood clot that has formed in the extraction socket, so avoid them for the initial 24 hour period. Also, you should avoid alcoholic beverages for at least 24 hours.

thats your problem dont go for high calories and suger that will only take more energy from you! go for high carbs. carbs give you consistent energy. you can put food in a blender and drink it with a straw! its not bad. maybe try those 5 hour energy thing

and before you 'preform' have some red bull!
