According to healthline.com, "Surgical extraction healing time:

Your tooth hole will be fully or almost fully closed about 6 weeks after surgery. The indentation will usually fill in and heal completely after several more months. Surgical extraction is often required to remove: an impacted tooth, such as wisdom teeth that don't erupt into your gums." ~ Healthline.com

As you can see, it will take roughly 1-2 weeks for your tooth extraction site to completely heal; however, if you notice any of the following symptoms or signs, be sure to contact our doctors as soon as possible: Fever. Intense pain in the jaw or gums. Numbness in the mouth.
