extraction: It would be a good idea to wait a day and make sure you feel well enough to play at your usual level. Your body needs to heal.

After extractions: Engaging in sports, especially ones that are more strenuous and involve contact, comes the increased blood pressure and the likelihood of bleeding. Two other factors are medical conditions and associated medications along with the difficulty of the extractions. While there are no blanket rules, i would wait minimum of one day and probably more. Discuss this subject with you own dentist.

That depends: If this was an over-retained baby tooth for a child it should not be much different then the tooth coming out on its own. If it was an easy experience and the child feels up to it, let them play. If this was an extraction of an adult tooth then i would wait a few days.
