Depends: All is related as to how infected the teeth were and how much bone was involved. Also relates to other medical conditions.

Pain from extraction: Healing and pain depends on how badly the teeth were infected, and how much bone was removed. Severe pain that lasts several days may be due to a dry socket. Make sure your son contacts the surgeon to have the area checked.
