Answers:
Generally after any type of extraction, you're supposed to refrain from eating for at least 2-4 hours!. Your dentist will ask you to keep your extraction sites covered with gauze in between that time frame (the 2-4hours), changing the gauze as needed!. After that, you should stick to soft, cold foods for the next few days!. Be especially careful when eating because it is hard to keep wisdom teeth extraction sites clean!. Also, do not spit, use a straw, swish water in your mouth, or do anything that could potentially dislodge the blood clots that form within the extraction sites!. The clots are what eventually leads to the healing of the gum!.

If you're getting all four removed on the same day, it might be nice to have the next day off!. There might be some swelling and discomfort (which is normal), but it's all a matter of your comfort as everyone is different with coping with it!. You'll probably be pretty comfortable within two or three days!.
