It takes to recover after wisdom teeth removal generally three to four days, although it can be as long as two weeks. However, pain should be lessening by the second day. But it varies from person to person, and also depends on how easy or difficult the tooth removal procedure was.
I have been getting WAY too many different opinions. How long after having my wisdom teeth pulled (Bottoms) am I clear to continue to smoke and drink through straws and such to avoid a dry socket? I am on day 6, some say drink and smoke away, and some are telling me 2 weeks, which seems REALLY extreme. Other sites say just dont do it for 24-48 hours. I have NEVER heard of someone getting a dry socket after day 5, yet some say its possible after 2 weeks.
