Follow Directions: Your dentist knows your wound and the extent of your surgery far better than anyone over the internet who hasn't examined you.

4 weeks is safe. : The tissue here is very fragile and in a place where the act of chewing and biting into food causes shearing forces that could tear the flap and cause major problems for you. Stay on the liquid diet as prescribed. Good luck
