Smoking causes vasoconstriction which can lead to poor healing to the affected area. Secondly the sucking action that happens in the mouth can dislodge the clot in the extracted tooth area, which can lead to dry socket

Just don't smoke. If you do the sucking motion will lift any clots that are forming. In addition, the smoke can damage the fragile tissues in your mouth, and increase the likelihood of infection.

First, you have to examine the paper your dentist gave you. If you do not have a paper, let me tell you what mine says. First, there is no rinsing,spitting or sipping through a straw in the first 24 hours after the extraction. You also have to do salt water rinses after the first day for one week. You may only eat liquds and soft foods for a week. Avoid hot,cold,spicy,acidic or citric foods or drinks. Additionally, do not have smoke or alcoholic beverages.If experiencing bleeding, bite down on fresh gauze for 30-45 min. Now, I have a question for you. Can you play an instrument after a tooth extraction?
