Can i drink alchohol after a wisdom tooth extraction?

i had my top left wisdom tooth extracted on tuesday. and the dentist told me that it stopped bleeding roughly at his lunchtime, so when i left the practice i knew it hadnt stopped bleeding, safe to say my letter of complaint is in the post and i wont be goin back there!, so i went along to the emergency dentist where i had 3 stitches, wednesday it stopped bleeding, thursday, when i woke up i coughed and out came a blod clot from the extraction area, i have been spitting to see if its still bleeding. but i was told today to stop doing that! the swelling has gone down finally. i was just wondering if i can drink alcohol. not go mad just have a few beers or spirits, i have stopped smoking because i know that defo dont help.

i should have added, that the bleeding has stopped, and what would happen if i did drink? would the stitches dissolve?

Well done for not smoking- particularly as you have had secondary bleeding. You need to give you mouth a chance to heal. The tobacco toxins would irritate the socket and prevent that.

Please do not drink alcohol. It is not at all advisable and am sure emergency dentist would confirm this. Why undo all the good work he/she has done? Not only that, imagine it starts bleeding again and you are under the influence of alcohol?

Did the original dentist or emergency dentist give you an advice sheet with "dos and do nots" ?

I recommend you wait until another 48 hours and give your body a chance to clot the blood in the socket correctly.

PS. the stitches will definitely not dissolve.
