A member asked:
Can i drink alcohol the day before i go to the dentist?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Probably: Moderate to low use of alcohol should not interfere with dental procedures. However, I do not know what procedure you will undergo or what medications your dentist will use. why not call him/her and ask.

Depends: on the procedure. I would not drink to excess especially if I was going to have a tooth removed nor would i drink if my liver was compromised as this may lead to prolonged bleeding. Best to not have alcohol the day before and best to check with your MD if you are going to have a tooth removed; your MD may need to consult with your DDS.
