  1. Ok so yesterday i got all 4 of my wisdom teeth not exactly pulled because they werent grown in yet but basically cut out of my gums. I am 18 and I really love smoking weed but dont love it enough to risk getting an infection or dry socket. I dont care if i have to wait a few days but I just want to know what would be the safest number of days to wait until i get to smoke again without any risk of getting a dry socket or infection. Thanks in advance for the help :)
     
  2. There was another topic on this today, there is a search function guys. Wait til your stitches fall out and then you should be good.
     
  3. i smoked an hour after i got outta the doctor and i was fine. no pain or anything.
     
  4. Just eat the pot if you want to get high.
     
  5. with salt, needs a little flavor
     
  6. dont suck the pipe a litte inhale works, the best way is to do a gravity bong or something to push the smoke into you.

    if you suck the smoke out then a dry socket will happen.

    i didnt smoke for about 3-4 days after i just enjoyed the drugs they gave me.

    i wouldnt smoke for atleast 24 hours
     
  7. These threads about tooth removal do come up every day it seems.. just make sure, if you are truly compelled to smoke, that whatever you're inhaling off has little to no draw, no more than you would when normally breathing through your unobstructed mouth... it's the 'suction' that most causes the dry socket, more than the dry or hot smoke itself. That's why they usually tell you to drink shakes, but avoid the straws. You want to basically pour everything you'd drink in your mouth, instead of using suction or a straw, over at least the next three or four days but preferably a week.

    Dry socket is no fun. It turns what should be a simple, virtually pain-free healing process that normally only lasts a week or two, into an agonizing 5-8 week experience, that results in improper, or uneven healing.
     
  8. If you cant get any Edibles to get Lifted, then just wait a few days. You can feel your gums with your tongue, as soon as u feel the sockets nearly closed would be ok. if it was only like 1 or 2 pulled, u really wouldnt have a problem. but the fact that they cut them out, 4 of them, you should wait atleast 2 weeks depending on how fast they heal and close up.
     
  9. did they not give you pharms? eat those instead
