It should be ok now: Let your dentist look, but you should be fine if you have another tooth extracted. it's unfortunate that they cannot be restored.

2 weeks: not sure why both teeth were not removed at the same time if they were in the same arch...I tell patients to wait two weeks between dental appointments because initial healing occurs within 14 days.

Two weeks waiting: is recommended. The removal of wisdom teeth, especially impacted teeth is a serious surgical procedure. You should wait 2-3 weeks to avoid dry socket.
