| Also I dont want to scare anyone but a dental school friend of mine told me that you can form a blood clot from the pressure in your mouth from playing and if by chance it gets into your blood stream then you could suffer a brain anyurism which are sometimes fatal.
This is a very severe case but why take the chance before you totally heal. The military band makes people wait to play for 3 weeks after a wisdom tooth procedure.... I am not in the military but also have trumpet playing friends there too.
Just a thought I'd pass on.....Wait a few weeks before you play again.... Then start back with building your endurance slowly. By taking these 3 weeks off you'll never have to worry about doing it again!
