Oooh! tooth work....brave you!...I'm about the same as you regarding teeth left, crowns and replacements etc. definitely relax today. Years ago I had an op. on my gums which took ages. Afterwards for about a week or so, I looked and felt as if I'd been clouted with a fire extinguisher! So something nice and soft to eat Paula....suck an omelette to death, custard etc., and anything easy to suck!
