2-4 hours: It should be nothing hot or spicy for 24 hours, so ice cream should be fine in a couple of hours.

Wisdom teeth: You can eat ice cream the same day because after extractions you are allowed to be on a soft diet immediately. Ice cream will help also with the pain and swelling if you have any.

Plain Ice Cream: Yes, you can as long as there are no nuts or any chunky ingredients that can go inside the socket. The cold temperature from ice cream is soothing as well. Just eat the right amount because indulging too much sugar when you want to recover faster is not the best thing you want in your diet after surgery.
