I'm gunna be honest with you and it may sound like I am making this up but I'm not. I got a root canal like 4 hours ago and I smoked as soon as I got out of the Dr.'s office. Now I tell you what a doctor would say, " quit." and I'll tell you what I know. I know that smoking greatly reduces the chance of a fast heal but I tell you what; I'm smoking right now. I know all these things are bad but as long as you don't take huge inhales or drags, and you clean your teeth regularly, you should be fine. P.s. I also smoked a cig less then twenty minutes after each of my teeth getting pulled (I'm bad I know) the only worry you really have is dry socket from sucking the blood from your news holes in the mouth. But, I have to say kudos for lasting so long. you are a brave one and also; never tell my doctor what I have told you because he just may put a hit out on my life because I have told most of my friends the same thing.

it's never ok to smoke

wait at least a week or two just to be on the safe side!

if you cant then just smoke it then really quick brush your teeth or rinse with mouthwash!

Call dentist & ask nurse - ask now, before you get into the weekend.
I say this because I did smoke & man did I regret it. Caused dry socket.

dont smoke it kills you

I dont think it was okay even before the surgery. But hey thats juust my opinion

yes it was ok after 24 hrs

i think its ok

You want to smoke, go ahead!.

dont do it it will cause more damage

LOL

why would you want to smoking kills

I know how hard it is to give up but believe me it can be done...give up now for your own sake

I wouldn't, but that's just me.

I am not going to suggest you quit smoking I am just wondering why you got the surgery when you are dying any way? Yes it is okay to smoke now.

no smoking is bad for you ANY and EVERY TIME!

yeah, it should be alright, but not advisable. my doc told me to not smoke for about a week - i smoked about 4 days after all my wisdom teeth were removed. it shouldn't be bad, but then again, its better if you can wait for another two days.

haha I know what you really wanna smoke there 420 gurl,,,, blaze it up u will be aight

I wouldn't chance it. I'd wait a few more days. I know how you feel; I'm an ex smoker but I did smoke when I had my wisdom teeth taken out. I wound up waiting 2 weeks, but I did use the patch when I couldn't smoke.

maybe this will help,

wow ur not rly good if u just got surgery just dont smoke till like next month

when i got all 4 wisdom teeth removed the first thing i did when i got home was smoke a cigarette. sure they told me not to, but i was sure not to make the sucking motion too powerful, and it turned out ok. go for it.

Smoking Is Bad It Will Make You ILL

I Would Not

When I got my wisdom teeth out, I didn't even bother waiting. Just make sure you clean it REALLY well after each cigg, and you'll be okay. My mom didn't and got Dry Socket, she was in pain for a while.

NO, NO , NO , NO , NO! I was a dental assisstant for years - you shouldn't smoke until the wounds are almost healed or you could infect them!

if you want dry sockets, then smoke away

U SHOULDNT SMOKE AT ALL! UNLESS UR PLANING TO LIVE FOR ONLY 10 MORE YRS... I WOULD STOP NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no, I would wait at least 10 days, or ask your dentist

it will be very painful if ya try to smoke now

they say after any surgery wait untill the wound is fully healed because smoking constrics your blood flow. I would wait at least one full week up to two (they suggest two).

i smoked the day of my surgery and i was fine, even though i'm sure i took a risk. you should be okay :]

I had 3 removed at one time and smoked as soon as I got home.

If you're able to make it through 4 days... you really should quit.
