Yes: Yes, if eating a food doesn't cause any pain, eat it. I holes will disappear over time. Rinse or flush after eating if any food particles enter the sockets.

Wisdom tooth : You can start eating more normal foods now. It sounds like you are healing normally. Keep the holes, sockets, clean by frequent rinsing. The holes will fill in over time.

Normally YES: Normally, post-op 9 days, you can eat a more normal diet, but you need to follow your dentist's/oral surgeon's instructions. You should not drink through a straw since the sucking in may create a dry socket, stay away from chewy or foods/chips with jagged edges, etc. Ask questions.

Post Op: You should be able to resume a normal diet at this time. Keep the sockets clean by brushing, flossing and at least rinsing after meals. The sockets should continue to close over time. If anything changes, call the dentist treating you.
