1-2 weeks: No soft drinks whatsoever are a good idea for about a 1-2 weeks after your wisdom teeth extraction. Juices are OK, but the acid in soft drinks could irritate the areas leading to dry socket. The most important thing you can do to prevent a post-op complications is follow the postoperative instructions by your surgeon.
