Depends/soft: Here's the short answer due to space limitations: immediately after surgery - meal replacement drinks are best. After a few days soft foods can usually be introduced. Try to avoid hard or crunchy foods completely. Because periodontal surgeries vary in type, you should discuss this issue on a case by case basis with your periodontist - the size of the wound and your health/healing issues too.
