can i drink coffee after wisdom teeth removal
Hey Taylor, I just had my wisdom teeth removed and I was wondering if I can have coffee?
Hello there! Well, I am not a dentist but based on common advice, it is usually recommended to avoid drinking hot beverages like coffee after wisdom teeth removal. The heat can disrupt the healing process. Maybe you should ask your dentist to be completely sure.
Oh, I see! So, the heat could be a problem. What about iced coffee then?
Again, better to confirm with a professional, but from what I understand, iced coffee might be a better option since it is cold. But remember, using a straw is a no-no as the suction could disrupt the healing process.
Got it, no straws and possibly iced coffee is better. How long do you think this might continue? I really miss my morning coffee.
I totally understand your need for a morning coffee! However, the precaution period varies with each person's healing process. Typically, it could be a week or so. It definitely sounds tough, but remember, it's important to take care of yourself. Again, your dentist would be the best person to provide an accurate timeframe.
