Tooth Exposure Oral Surgery - CAN I SMOKE?

[icaustic]

Hey guys, i was just wondering if its safe to smoke after my surgery 2 days ago.
I had 4 teeth (which were hiding in the gum) exposed. So the gum and bone were cut into, and now they're showing.

There was no bleeding after the surgery, and i got some weed...so i was thinking, would it be a problem to go ahead and roll a nice joint?
my mouth is still very sensitive from the surgery, but i dont think pulling the smoke from the joint would hurt me.

any suggestions? thanks!

I'd say avoid smoking and oral sex for a little while longer but since you already smoked I'd suggest not blowing/eating anyone (whichever may apply) and getting yourself a vaporizer.

I had two molars pulled at the same time and of course was told to not smoke for a week. I obviously couldn't do that. I went home and smoked a bowl. I limited my smoking and the only problem I had was a little excess bleeding.:smokin:

yea you should be fine...ive had a few oral surgeries at this point myself and smoked herb within 3 days of everyone and been fine...although id say pass on cigarettes or oral sex...youll run a good chance of gettin a dry socket from 1 of those, however for some reason weed doesnt seem to do it to ppl as often from what ive heard.

well if you get an air pocket in where the tooth was you wont be feeling so good.thing is people dont understand an air pocket in your tooth can kill you....thats why the dentist tells you not to smoke after oral surgery....but hes just a dentist he doesnt know anything...
