Possibly...: Part of the fatigue may be due to healing. Your body may be utilizing much energy to heal the treatment areas. If you are experiencing more pain or swelling than expected please do contact the dentists who performed the procedures.

Perfectly normal: Your body is using energy to heal itself, so you may feel more fatigue than usual and this is perfectly normal. You also may expect swelling for 7 days and a fever of 99 degrees F to 100 degrees F. If you do not feel that you are beginning to improve after 7 days call your surgeon for post-op appointment.
