I would not recommend smoking on the same day as you have a wisdom tooth removed. More than likely you run a VERY HIGH risk of developing a dry socket. This means the blood clot that is supposed to form in your mouth won't form properly or will dislodge causing extreme PAIN!!! It's not worth the risk! I am not a dentist, but have just had my teeth out and was advised by my dentist not to do it!! It may be hard, but enduring the pain will be harder.
The greatest danger is that you might develop what is called a 'dry socket'. This is where the blood clot in the socket is lost prematurely. The bone and nerves are left exposed to the outside environment and the socket becomes inflamed and extremely painful. Your dentist can easily manage this condition, but the time until you can get to your dentist will be excruciating. A dry socket can occur even if you don't smoke, but smoking is known to be a leading cause of the condition.
Smoking also tends to slow down the healing process and therefore you are at greater risk for post-operative infections and other complications.
You are more then likely going to get dry sockets
nicotine will stop process of healing and probably start bleeding
Maybe my answer is more of an opinion, but NO, you should not smoke pot, At All... However, if you do smoke anything, to avoid getting dry sockets, you should not after having surgery on your wisdom teeth, at least not within 48 to 72 hours.
no
I just got my wisdom teeth pulled as well about that long ago and was wondering the same thing, but everywhere I have looked it says a minimum of 48 hours to prevent dry socket. Sounds like 72 hours is best though....... Oh well...
First of all, it will be tempting to smoke, but wait AT LEAST 48 hours. It's vital during these first two days to let the blood clot settle. Myself, I smoke marijuana and I smoked 36 hours, but I took very light hits and barely sucked in. I'm lucky to not get dry socket, but for those unfortunate, smoking is a main cause. If, after 48 hours, you must smoke, try and take very small drags and don't suck too hard. Many people ignore these warnings and end up getting dry socket OUCH!
Yes you can
Yes you can. The Doctors recommend waiting 48 hours AT LEAST. And then when you do decide to smoke, take small hits and put a gauze in over your holes to keep from getting dry socket.
no, it is not bad to smoke weed after surgery. it's very good for you but to recover faster snort a line of coke.

No if you do you will get dry socket and that is the most painful experience I ever had. Getting the wisdom teeth out was nothing compared to the dry socket. I fell down in the shower with pain and I had to go to the doctor everyday to get novacaine packed in my tooth it was so painful please dont smoke or drink through a straw after surgery.
You will be high two days before surgery.
It is never safe to smoke ! Each cigarette is a nail in your coffin !
You damage your lungs.
