i have wisdom teeth (4) and 4 regular teeth for braces. i had it done yesterday so the 4 regular teeth has black on them which i guess is normal since its just blood but when does it go away? how long does swelling last? how do i brush my teeth i also have stitches in the back of my lower jaw because i have 2 small impacting teeth.

Teeth extraction questions?
Didn't your dentist go through this with you? That's a bit harsh to leave you with no instructions. The discolouration should go away in a few weeks, gradually it will return to the normal pink colour. The swelling also will be gone in a few weeks. When you brush your teeth, be SO careful. Stay away from the area for a week or so. It may even be better just to rinse gently instead of brushing. Good luck with the discomfort, just think how great your teeth will look once they are all healed and straight!
