Are you on any medication? If not I don't see why not. Were you advised not to?

think penicillin OK with alcohol but I am not certain. Have a google and see. Usually with antibiotics it will either negate the effect or make you get drunk quicker!

Alcohol is an antiseptic isn't it? I'm sure it will be fine it may even promote healing...

You mean 3 hours?? God not much would stop me drinking for 3 days, certainly not a tooth out, I'm sure it will be fine.
