Hi Berus,
Actually..... that is a great question!!!
It is ideal to be healed from the oral surgery before you share "germs" with anyone. Once the surgical sites are closed over... you are good to go!!
Of course many people do not follow that recommendation... but if you are the kind of person who thinks/worries about this kind of stuff.... then it is better to be cautious than sorry later on.
If it were me.... I would not take any chances
Never hesitate to ask a question here.... I'm pretty much open to just about anything ~:

When you're in pain, it can feel as though it will never stop, and that can have an effect on one emotionally. When the pain DOES stop, it's like being let of out jail.
However, I have what I would describe as a rather delicate follow-up question, which I'll try to phrase as tactfully as possible:
Following an oral surgery procedure, in this case, extraction of 4 wisdom teeth one of which was rather slow to heal, how soon is it safe/advisable to resume intimate relations? Let's further categorize this into two categories: Kissing, and... other things.
Sorry if anyone is embarrassed by this, but it IS a pertinent question, and I was wondering if anyone knew. I realize there's a case-by-case difference in when, but, generally speaking... is there some guideline that allows one to know when?
Thanks!
