Giving oral sex after wisdom tooth extraction hole closes?
Hello. I am a 24 year old, gay male. I had two impacted wisdom teeth removed about a month and a half ago. One of them left an extraction hole behind. By now, the hole has closed up and the tissue is nice and pink, but still soft. Do I need to wait until the tissue is hard again to give oral sex or am I ok to do that now? I know that the risk of dry socket has long passed, but I am more worried about STI risk.
Would not think this would be an issue. Definitely not for anything like HIV (oral sex is never an issue). The risks of STD's are not huge and I assume you were worried about blood with HIV. Not a risk. As long as your mouth isn't sore, the risks of oral sex and std's are the same now as they would be without the gum issue.
