You need to give your wisdom teeth sockets time to heal. This means that you should avoid irritating the area. The healing process begins with a blood clot. If you spit, smoke a cigarette, drink from a straw, you can cause a pressure that removes the clot from the socket. The is called dry socket and needs to be treated by the dentist, it is also associated with significant discomfort. To answer your question you can brush your teeth but avoid the areas that were involved with the surgery for at a few days. Your surgeon should give you a specific time frame that is associated with the type of procedure that was done.

Right away, just don't brush too close to healing incisions because blood clots still need to form. Be careful and gentle, and don't swish around water until 1 week after.

You can brush them starting the morning after if you're careful. If they're in extreme pain, I would avoid it though and wait until night.

All it does to your teeth is discolor them - but smoking will put your gums at risk. It's an oxidizer, it causes vasoconstriction, and there's lots of toxic particles to get in between your teeth and your gums.
