A member asked:
Is it safe to travel via airplane after a tooth extraction?

Eventually: The flight itself should really have no impact on the extraction site if healing has begun. My concern is that there are post op complications that can manifest themselves a day or two following the extraction. Last thing you want to do while away from home is to seek out emergency dental care.
