Is it safe to drink liquor after wisdom teeth are just pulled?
It's not recommended to drink alcohol during the healing period after wisdom teeth extraction.
Alcohol thins the blood, leading to prolonged bleeding and potentially displacing blood clots over the extraction site. Blood clotting is crucial for the healing process, and disruption can cause further complications, including dry sockets.
For your smooth and timely recovery, doctors advise against consuming alcohol at least 24-48 hours or until you've healed sufficiently for your dentist's satisfaction.
