Hello
Since you're in the middle of your root canal treatment and not fully done yet, it's best to be cautious with how you chew:
Here’s what you should do:
Avoid chewing on the side of the treated tooth until the root canal is fully completed and sealed (usually in the final step with a crown or filling).
Chew on the opposite side to protect the temporary filling and avoid putting pressure on the healing tooth.
Eat soft foods — things like rice, mashed potatoes, yogurt, or eggs — that don’t require a lot of force to chew.
Avoid very hot or cold foods — the area might still be sensitive.
Next Steps
Eat on opposite of the treating tooth till your doctor finishes the procedure.
Health Tips
The temporary filling or open canal can be fragile.
Chewing on that side might cause fracture, dislodgement, or re-infection before the treatment is finalized.
Once your dentist finishes the final step, especially if they place a crown, you should be able to use that side more normally.
