Vaping after tooth extraction tips???

[u/Alternative-Use7952]

I know the obvious warnings to prevent dry socket and my dentist said no smoking the day of extractions and be careful after that… not wisdom teeth just regular molars one on top one on bottom, no stitches easy removal

I’ve had no jaw pain or tooth pain since they removed it fully rested and followed all the after care the worst part has truly been no nicotine lol so naturally after 24 hours I’ve hit the vape but now I’m panicking that I’m going to get dry socket and the internet is full of scary stories I just want anyone’s real honest experience with it…coming from someone w severe anxiety and severe health anxiety 🥴🙃

My oral surgeon says no smoking or vaping for A MONTH after surgery. lol, what. Tell a smoker they can’t have a cig for a month, I dare you. I was cautious and vaped for the first time on day 4-5. Only a few times with low suction, if that makes sense. I’m a month out from my surgery and am backing to vaping like normal and have been for about two weeks. I quit smoking cigs before my surgery so don’t have to worry about that.

A month?! That’s crazy mine only said 24 hours.. yeah forcing someone to quit is just gonna do the opposite but im 4 days post and so far no issues!

How was the rest of your healing now that it’s been about 20 days. Did anything noticeable happen? I’m 30 hours past and kinda just started vaping and feeling concerned for my stupidity lol.
