Can you drink alcohol a week after a tooth extraction?

Whether you can drink alcohol one week after tooth extraction mainly depends on the healing degree of the extraction socket, as follows: 1, you can drink alcohol: if the tooth is relatively easy to remove, and there is no local infection after extraction, the extraction socket is healing well, one week after extraction, the extraction socket is free of localized pain and redness and swelling, you can drink alcohol in moderation in this case. 2, you can’t drink alcohol: if it is the extraction of wisdom teeth or difficult to extract the molars, the extraction process will cause relatively more soft tissue and hard tissue damage, and it is easy to have postoperative infections. The extraction process will cause relatively large soft tissue and hard tissue damage, the healing time of the extraction nest will be relatively longer, and it is easy to have postoperative infection of the extraction. If after one week of extraction, there is still localized redness, swelling, pain and even partial infection in the extraction socket, you should not drink alcohol because alcohol will cause different degrees of stimulation to the mucous membrane in the extraction socket, causing delayed mucous membrane healing, and even causing localized infection, so you should not drink alcohol in this case.
