Brief Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM

Detailed Answer:
There is no some serious consequances which could happen if you do this activity,but infections may be more easily tranmissed if teeth were pulled since wounds may still be opened. So risk of infections usch as hepatitis may be higher as well as higher could be oral and throat infections which you could get from your partner. These risks are still low but to reduce it completely, you should wait for 3-4 days before having oral sex. Wish you good health. Regards
