If you have school or work, you may need to take a week off. Arrange your schedule beforehand, especially if you have a child or pet to take care of. Most patients can return to their normal activities after a week. However, it is quite common for some people to still experience pain and swelling even after a few weeks. Discomfort is a normal effect of the surgery. Be sure to tell your dentist if you experience unusual issues, such as pus discharge and severe pain.
Always come in for a regular check-up so that the 123 Dental team can keep an eye on your wisdom teeth.
