How long does it take to heal after your wisdom teeth are extracted?

Question

I got my wisdom teeth extracted Thursday and it's now Monday and i still have quite a lot of pain. I also got something called a frenectomy done if you know what that is and it's also causing me pain. If anybody could let me know how long it'll be before everything heels up it would be great. Thanks (:

Answer 1

It all depend. You may be able to feel it for quite a while. For me, the pain went completely away in about 2 weeks. It wasn't bad after about a week. Hope it feels better!!!

Answer 2

what you believe is right :]

Answer 3

it took about 2 weeks for my pain to go completely away

Answer 4

I had a molar pulled 7/31 and a wisdom tooth pulled on 8/4 and my cheek is still alittle swollen , took all my antibiotics , i guess everybody heals different

Answer 5

Are you following the dentists after surgery care plan?   I had all four of my wisdom teeth done at the same time and the pain went away after a few days.  Have you been rinsing your mouth with salt water.  It is important to follow the after care instructions.  Anyway, if its still sore after two weeks go back to the doctor.
