Few questions about wisdom teeth extraction? :)?

No need to be nervous..it's not as bad as you think. Number one rule is don't smoke and don't drink from straws. they both cause dry socket. I don't know about working out but I went back to work at walmart the very next day. You can eat and drink anything you can stand to...you will want something soft i assure you. Bleeding is natural and the doctor should tell you to rinse your mouth with salt water starting the day after. Swelling goes down over time. The anesthetic...if you're going all the way out then you won't feel a thing. If it's twilight you will know what goes on around you but feel out of it and no pain. Your throat will feel a little scratchy and sore and of course your mouth will be sore and groggy for a few hours. Brush your teeth very softly. don't scrub vigorously. and I felt completely healed within a week. Do as your doctor says to the tee and you will be fine. No worries....it's a piece of cake.
