How soon after an oral extraction can you drink hot temperature drinks and spicy foods?

Wait a few days: The mouth heals pretty quickly so i think about three days should do it. You want to give your mouth the best chance to heal by avooding foods and drink that are hot, spicy or acidic for a while.

24 hours: Any sooner than 24 hours would risk prolonging the healing.

Almost immediately: Everyone is different. For most people, hot and or spicy food makes no difference.
