I got my wisdom teeth out nine days ago is it safe to smoke?
No, it's not safe to smoke after getting your wisdom teeth out. Smoking can interfere with the healing process and increase the risk of complications, such as dry socket. Smoking can also cause the blood clot to break down, leading to dry socket. Additionally, the chemicals in cigarettes can irritate the gums and slow down the healing process. It's best to avoid smoking for at least 2-4 weeks after wisdom tooth extraction, or as advised by your dentist or oral surgeon.Smoking - Related Articles
