A member asked:

Am i safe to drink carbonated drinks and smoke 5 days after a tooth is extracted?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: In addition to carbonated drinks damaging your tooth enamel, and smoking guaranteed to shorten our life, both activities can interfere with optimum healing. Hold off about 10 days to 2 weeks, before rewuming any harmful activities.
