Wisdom teeth extraction healing period?

I had all four of my widsom teeth taken out Friday. They were sideways impacted and had cysts around them blah blah blah. I'm feeling a lot better, but I have to stay on the medicine pretty heavily. I just don't know how long the healing process is. I thought that I'd be able to sing by the end of the week, but now I've read that it could take up to a month or two. Does anyone have any idea how long the NORMAL healing period is? Thank you so much!

My daughter had all 4 out and was completely fine after a week. I've never heard of a month. If it was Friday, you should really start feeling better by about Wednesday. With the cysts, you might still have some swelling for 2-3 days after that.


Hope your feeling better real soon. At least it's over.
Reply:I know what you are going through. I had mines pulled out in oct. 2007 and i had to stay of work for three days but it didn't heal all the way until about a month later. make sure you rinse your mouth out with peroxide(after a week) so food and excess things wont get stuck down in gums while they are healing. HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER!
Reply:I had mine done while awake. I was more afraid of being put to sleep them having mine cut out, They were impacted.





I didnt eat well for like a week but all in all after a week I was much better, After 2 weeks I was fine. It depends more on each person and how they deal with pain. But I was swollen and bruised for a week but that was me.





Good Luck and eat soft foods!
Reply:I had all four of mine removed at once as well, and I was honestly feeling fine in about 48 hours. HOWEVER, even if you're feeling fine, be careful what you do. Follow your care instructions to a T. When I was feeling better, I assumed I WAS better and proceeded to eat pizza and ended up with a pretty little infection in the extraction site. So even though you might feel better sooner than you think, be cautious and follow what your dentist says because you're still going to be healing, even when you don't feel it. Good luck and feel better!!!
