I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed 8 days ago. Is it cool for me to smoke a couple blunts without getting dry socket?!?
I wouldn't, could get dry socket or infection... Use the pain meds. for a little bit, Safer... and cleaner!!!
I didn't smoke until mine were completely healed and just felt like normal parts of my gums Edibles are your friend though, especially on the weekend.. also if you're super desperate you could smoke through your nose, lol, but I heard that is pretty unpleasant
i just had my last wisdom tooth pulled about a week ago,i smoked imediatly after getting home from the appointment,ive done this after all appointments in the past decade.that dry socket stuff dosent happen if your not putting extreme suction on anything ie the pipe/stoge. i roll my own though so i dont have to pull hard on the stoge to get a good drag and pipes dont require that much suction to get a good pull.I believe man made ciggarettes takes alot more pull to get a good drag and that could possibly cause dry socket but ive never had one in my life and i dont have anymore teeth left to pull
What did your dental surgeon say about it? He's the best person to be asking because he knows your individual case, like how invasive your surgery was, was there cutting and drilling, did you need stitches, etc. I personally wasn't into cannabis at the time when I got my wisdom teeth out, but my procedure was pretty invasive with drilling and stitching on all four sides. I would have been terrified to smoke anything until I was sure nothing was going to come loose. Maybe if you're really wanting some cannabis, you could check out the edibles forum, they have recipes for things like single servings of canna-oil and such that you could add to your food. That's the only thing I feel safe suggesting.
Careful! If you do get dry socket (I got dry socket in all four of my pockets It hurt like a motherfucker for 28 hours until I was able to get back into the dentist).... But IF YOU DO, some cheap helpful techniques is to shove clove sticks into the whole. It will feel weird at first, but will reduce the pain. Also there are clove + cinnammon mixtures (comes in a small, square brown bottle with like a green logo on it) that if you put it on a q-tip and gently rub on the holes it will help reduce mouth pain.

what about food?!? not that soft shit either! im super worried about eating solid foods & risking it getting caught in one of those holes... how do i get food out if something happens to get caught back there???
Yeah man 8 days you should be good man i waited like 5 and was fine. Just brush like hell and keep doing salt water rinses for another day or two. Also i made weed tea for the first few days to avoid dry socket. Try that if you think you haven't healed yet.
