question: i just had a small root extraction and a dissolve stich put in today. but was given nothing for the pain so i would like to toke up after 8hrs will this be okay? the doctor did not mention anything about getting a dry socket ... will i get one  if i choose to smoke? the extraction was only of the root of my tooth cause it had broken and the gum had slightly grown over the tooths roots. it took less then 15 min for my appointment to be over with.
