Wisdom Teeth Pulled?!


Question:

Wisdom Teeth Pulled?

Anyone know how long it usually takes for your sockets to fill in? I had mine (top only - I don't have bottom ones) pulled in mid-April. They were fully erupted, so it was a quick numb and pull. No cuts or stitches needed. They still have yet to fill in. Should I give it a little more time or call up the surgeon? They told me they would heal up fast, but they did not tell me just how long...


Answers:

It'll take at least 2 months to fully close. Impacted ones w/stitches might take longer. I had 4 removed a month ago and the top ones are about half closed but still a hole there. The bottom ones is taking a little longer. Continue to rinse after every meal to keep it clean. Good luck
