Varies: Responding and recovery from surgery varies from patient to patient. Some patients undergoing the removal of 4 impacted wisdom teeth rebound and continue with their normal activities as if they had not had surgery. Another patient may undergo a simple uncomplicated extraction of a single tooth and feel incapacitated for several days. Plan on taking it easy for the first two to three days postop.

Varies: Varies based on age, degree of eruption, use of general vs local anesthesia, associated medical problems. Your best bet is to make sure you are evaluated and treated by a board certified oral & maxillofacial surgeon. He/she will give you complete information about the surgery.
