i got all 4 of mine out on the same day, ill be honest, it hurts for the first week, each day lesser and lesser pain. things to expect? theyll prescribe a numbing pain pill, and a mouthwash you use 3 times daily. i know you might be like ''does the mouthwash burn on the open wounds?' no, youd think it does (i did) but it doesnt. also, you should be able to eat solids after 5-7 days, in that 5-7 days though, eat soft foods like mashed potatoes etc ( you prob know that) but in order to void dry-socket, make sure you keep food at the front part of the mouth mainly, dry-socket is no joke. anyways, hope that helps? lol
