How Long to Take off Work After Wisdom Teeth Extraction?

i know they give you pain killers and where i work its not relly a good idea to be all doped up while carry heavy packeges so how long ?

Suggestion:

It depends what kind of extraction you had. If it is a simple extraction, you could be back at work that same day. If it's surgical extraction, you will likely want to take 3 or 4 days off. Not everyone needs heavy painkillers for days.

Well I had 4 taken out on a thursday skipped friday rested over the weekend went back to school on monday my mouth was a little sore but I didn't need the pain killers.

… I was in 6th grade when I had mine taken out. Well mine weren't really wisdom teeth they were just these really weird teeth growing under my gums in the front of my bottom jaw.

So probably 2 or 3.

if you are doped up for more than a day, the doping is not from the painkiller.!

if you need more than two days, you have an incredibly low pain thresh hold.

Schedule the appointment for a Friday, and you can have the whole weekend off.

Ahhhhh!!!!!!

From what I remember, like a day or two TOPS..

Your bottom lip will feel like its 8 pounds.. Feels like its hanging there but its not :D
