My years of being a dental hygienist tells me you should be fine. Eat a rock for all I care. The human teeth will totally bounce back in some awesome manner.

as long as you feel no pain and not because of the pain killers and not bleeding i say you be fine. I have only 3 wisdom and i was eating normal the next day. not kidding, BUT my sister who couldn't eat crap and she her mouth would bleed for the rest of the week.
It's very possible to be eating solid food again that soon, and not have any problems. But there is a risk. I wouldn't say the risk is worth it. Everyone I know who's had dry socket describes it to be an excrutiating pain you couldn't even imagine without actually experiencing it. When I got mine taken out, I took no risk. I ate nothing but soup and smoothies and yogurt until the holes were completely healed over.
If you're going to go ahead and risk eating solids so soon, before the holes are healed, at least be sure to clean them well. The surgeon probably gave you a little plastic syringe-looking thing, for shooting that special mouthwash into the sockets. I would recommend using the sh!t out of that. Several times a day. Pretty much immediately after eating anything.
Thats a pretty stupid decision TC. Its not just about infection, your mouth has to health. Plus shouldnt you still be drooling? I was drooling for like 3 days

I'm not drooling. And I'm barely swelled up. Just a little bit of bleeding still (very faint).
All four huh? Were they impacted? My bottom Wisdom teeth were impacted against my jaw bone so every time I opened my mouth, I could hear my teeth rubbing against the jaw. Got them removed and spent a week recovering. The pain was on and off and it didn't help that I had to attend class too (Can't afford to miss any). I wouldn't eat any hard foods for a day or two after just to be safe. You wouldn't want to experience a dry socket. I should also probably mention that this was done by an oral surgeon.
[QUOTE="lonewolf604"][QUOTE="lo_Pine"][QUOTE="lonewolf604"] There's a risk of infection, and dry sockets. So you're doing it for the thrill? Sure why not This will be you... "teeth...wat r u doing...teeth ... stahp :("
