Wisdom Teeth Post Op Question Posted: 07-29-05 12:45pm
Hello. I recently had my wisdom teeth
removed. Today is my 3rd post op day. I
was wondering when I could smoke again.
I'm worried about dry socket and have
heard is is extremely painful but at the
same time im casting glances at my pack of
cigs and the paper the doctor gave me told
me to wait until healing is well
established. Well since im not exactly
sure when "healing will be well
established" I would like an opinion from
someone else who smoked and didnt get dry
socket. Thx :d
