A member asked:
How long does it take to recover from a impacted wisdom teeth removal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
1-2 weeks: If you are young and healthy the surgical sites should be healed enough to be symptom free in 1-2 weeks. Make sure that you follow all post op instructions so that there will be a minimal risk of complications. Full healing of the areas will take about 3 months.
