The saliva does come back somewhat, at least mine did. I had to have all the roots of my teeth taken out so i also eat most things mashed or small bites. Lots of chicken as it is a soft meat and the roof of your mouth and tongue can break it up, steak and beef, not so much.
Crickets are fun to hunt down. You have to follow their chirp. Good times, especially if they are in the basement, then once you locate them you have to get them outside again
