How long does it take for the gum to grow back, over the holes, after having 2 wisdom teeth removed? and how long does it take for and stitches to dissolve? cheers
Mine took about 3 weeks to fully grow back. The stitches came out after about 10 days. I did get a dry socket though in the first week, as the gum was healing too quickly.
Not sure that I agree with 3 weeks.....I would suggest closer to 6 before you feel comfortable with them. Dissolving stitches should go in ten days but I had to have one removed by the local practice nurse after 3 weeks....it just wouldn't go!
When I had my teeth out (although they weren't wisdom) it took about 2 months for my gums to heal properly and for me to be able to eat normally using that part of my mouth
