Vaping after a frenectomy?

[Jalev]

Hi there, 

    It’s been approximately 52 hours since my labial frenectomy, and I was wondering if it was okay vape again. I had a laser frenectomy done, and while I realize it’s probably not the best idea to vape, I’m kind of starting to get a bit irritable. My biggest concern is getting a dry socket and making things worse. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My first piece of advice is for you to ask your doctor. Just my opinion since I'm not a trained medical professional, but I would not vape just yet. Having experienced a dry socket with a wisdom tooth removal, I wouldn't do anything that would risk any kind of dry socket. If you need nicotine, go get some patches until you fully heal.
