It's best not to smoke if you have an open cavity or have had an extraction ,other than that you shouldn't have a problem.
One thing all people visiting the dentist should know is that cannabis interferes with the novocaine making it less effective.

i wasn't high when i went in so i didn't have a problem with the novocaine but thanks for the replys ill go toke now :jointsmile:

Been there, done that! Just don't pull too hard! Make sure your mouth is not going through "cotton mouth". A dry mouth is bad= more bacteria. I had most of my teeth removed several years ago. I toked on the way home, sipping ice water in between hits. As long as your mouth is clean and moist, and you don't pull too hard on the pipe, bong or joint, you should be OK. - Granny:hippy:

Yeah, give it a day or two to heal up if your gums hurt. If your gums don't hurt, then you can smoke right away.

Granny's right, avoid dry mouth like the plague (in general). Biotene is great, but also xylitol gum (you can get it at a natural foods store) like Xylichew is beneficial. Tom's of Maine makes a xylitol toothpaste, too.

And drink water!
