A few days: Normally, after a few days, the gum tissue has healed over the extraction sites & you'll be pretty comfortable. If there's still a little swelling, it might not feel all that great when your blood pressure increases. The extraction site might throb and bleed. Use your own judgement & do whatever's comfortable. Each new day will be a little better. You'll have no long-term problems.

Comfortable: As soon as you are comfortable. If oral sex, best to wait for at least a week.
