NO! You should not smoke after any extractions. Smoking may cause something called a "Dry Socket" which can be extremely painful! Ask your dentist or oral surgeon how long you should wait before smoking.

* No, there should be no problem, but after you finish smoking use a good antibacterial mouth wash. What is the most important is not to smoke after you have extracted your wisdom teeth for at least 48 hours. == ==

One should not smoke weed unless prescribed. However, if one does smoke weed, you shouldn't smoke weed until your gums are fully healed from the surgery. Smoking may increase a chance of an infection, so if able to, you should refrain from smoking until the gums are fully healed.

Not a good idea. Smoking will abate the healing process because of the intake of pressure upon the wound, while you smoke --- also, the tar and nicotine will also affect the healing process. It's best to wait awhile, before you smoke. Talk to your oral surgeon about this.

Do they break your jaw to remove your wisdom teeth?

Unfortunately YES! I have been in many a room assisting dentists with this procedure and have seen it happen for myself way more than once. Sometimes wisdom teeth are so impacted (buried under not only your gums and jaw bone but also under nearby teeth) that the Doctor must drill away bone tissue just to get to them. Having your wisdom teeth removed can be a cake walk for some and an awful nightmare for others.

Do you need to have your wisdom teeth removed if there is enough space in your mouth for them to come in?

Before I had braces on, it was suggested that I have my wisdom teeth removed, so I did. It could however depend on the individuals teeth, mine were quite crowded or as they call it impacted. You'll be glad you got braces, good for you. Very often, if wisdom teeth have no room to erupt, it is recommended to extract them following an orthodontic treatment.


What can hurt when your wisdom teeth are coming in?

The wisdom teeth can in fact hurt your jaw if there is no enough room for them to grow properly in your jaw bone. Wisdom teeth have high possibility of getting impacted as a result of smaller jaw bones. One of the most common reasons is to inherit the jaw size from one parent and teeth size from another parent and if the jaw size and teeth size are in discrepancy you end up having impacted wisdom teeth. The other reason could be simply because of some changes in the pathway your wisdom teeth are growing. For getting more info please click on this link here. Dr.Benjamin Ghotbi

You have had your wisdom teeth removed your gums are sore can they be growing back?

No. Your wisdom teeth were removed, not cut. A tooth is a bone just like any other. The pain you feel is the actual gum healing. You should be sore for a week or two. It's just part of the process. Try not to let anything get inside the wound.
