Weed.
If you do this option, don’t smoke, find some edibles. I’m pretty sure smoking right after having teeth pulled is a really bad idea (not 100% sure, but pretty sure)
Suppositories sounds like the best option here.
You are correct. You don’t want to create suction in your mouth for a few days after having a tooth extracted. You’ll end up with something called a dry socket, which is far more excruciating than the initial pain of extraction.
Smoking can cause dry-socket which is also incredibly painful. I smoked anyway after my extraction because I’m a filthy addict, rinsing with saline after every puff and got away with it, but it’s a risk yeah
