This process is repeated a large number of times (typically 1,000 or 10,000 times), and for each of these bootstrap samples we compute its mean (each of these are called bootstrap estimates). We now have a histogram of bootstrap means.
Most people are able to safely chew and swallow foods of many different textures. As we chew, food is broken down into small pieces. Saliva moistens and binds food pieces together in preparation for swallowing.A dry or sore mouth can cause problems with chewing and swallowing.
Due to the swelling you won't be able to eat many foods in the first few days. Mashed potatoes, yogurt, soups, broth and ice cream are the best choices for the first week or until your mouth has healed enough that you can eat with no pain. The key is to eat soft foods that require no chewing.
