Wisdom teeth removal often requires a few days of rest, during which you may experience swelling, discomfort, and dietary restrictions. For students, summer is a great time to have the procedure done so it doesn’t interfere with school. Adults with more flexible schedules during the summer also find it easier to take time off for the procedure and recovery, avoiding interruptions to work. Since wisdom teeth develop and erupt between the ages of 16-25 years. It is common to have them removed and scheduled around the patient’s school schedule. We make sure to have extra hours open during these weeks per our local school districts.
While recovery from wisdom teeth removal isn’t exactly “fun,” summer weather can make it a bit more bearable. You can rest and relax outdoors, enjoy fresh air, read a book, or take a gentle walk to help boost your mood and aid in healing. Just be sure to avoid strenuous activities or too much sun exposure for 1 week during the recovery.
