Yes, a toilet clogged exclusively with soft toilet paper will often unclog itself over time as the paper fibers break down and disintegrate when exposed to standing water for several hours. However, if the blockage is dense or compacted, relying on natural dissolution can take a very long time, and stagnant wastewater can breed bacteria and create foul odors. Verification: Check the bowl water level after 3 hours; if it remains high without receding, mechanical intervention using a flange plunger is required.
