Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery questions
Is wisdom tooth removal painful?
The procedure itself is painless under local anaesthesia. Swelling and mild discomfort for two to three days afterwards is normal and controlled with the medication prescribed.
How long is the recovery?
Most patients return to routine activity the next day. Soft foods for two to three days and the aftercare instructions we give you cover the rest of the healing.
