Varies: For many patients the effects of the anesthesia last for a few hours. For some the rest of the day. That's why you need to have someone drive you home. Speak to your surgeon regarding what meds you will be given and what to expect.

Oral surgeon: From your question, it is likely that you nave not seen an oral surgeon for your wisdom tooth. Most oral surgeons will show you a video, after exam, go over everything, give you complete written instructions which would have answered all your questions. Make sure your surgery is being done by a board certified oral & maxillofacial surgeon.
