Normal food: Implants are great and very strong, you just need avoid very hard things like popcorn kurnels and things that hard, just as you should with natural teeth.

Normal things.: If your implants are healed, stable and properly restored you should be able to eat a normal diet. Of course, i would avoid anything too hard as you could fracture the porcelain / acrylic just like you could fracture your natural teeth or fillings. I advise all my patients to avoid crunching down on hard things like frozen milky ways, frozen grapes, ice, etc. Even on their own teeth. Enjoy !

Anything you want: If your dentist gave you the green light to eat on your implant tooth than you can eat what you want. Remember if the food is bad for your own natural teeth than its probebly bad for your implant tooth as well.

Anything: Dental implants are the next best thing to the natural teeth that god gave us. That being said, it is possible to break the tooth material the implant crown is made of. Thereofore, i'd avoid extremely hard candies, or things that require you to chew really hard to eat. Otherwise, you should be fine ! keep smiling !

If healed, anything!: Watching a movie, sleeping etc. It doesn't matter. If the implant is fully healed and properly restored you can eat most anything. However implants, unlike natural teeth don't have "feeling" so avoid jaw breakers etc.

Eating w/ Implants: Depends what you like to eat. Anything that would break natural teeth probably will break implants and what they support. There is a reason one looses there natural teeth. The same holds true for implant supported teeth.
