Answers:
your good to wait that long, if it were me, i,d have had one walking down the dentists drive on the way out lol!.But, no seriously, really give it atleast 4 or 5 hours, just so the hole will congeal and start the healing process!.lol!. you brave person you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

OK here's the deal the drink part would be fine as long as it isn't from a straw, as for the smoking part they say not to smoke for at least 3 days i couldn't wait that long so i ripped the filter off, and smoked that way!. the main thing you want to avoid is suction like from drawing smoke from the filter, or drinking from a straw it will pull the blood clot out of the socket and you will wind up with dry socket, which is extremely painful i had to learn that the hard way, you should be back to normal in about 3 days!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you should wait for 1 week so that you are sure of your teeth!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

look up dry socket and then see if you want a cigarette

we say at our office!. 2-3 days otherwise you risk getting a dry socket-very painful and not worth the risk!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
