How long does it take to recover from a tooth extraction

  Generally, the wound will initially heal in about 1 week after tooth extraction, the pain and swelling will disappear, and complete bone tissue will be formed in about 3 months, and veneers can be considered.  After tooth extraction, blood clot will be formed within 15-30 minutes, after 24 hours the blood clot will be mechanized and gradually form granulation tissue, around 1 week the blood clot will be basically replaced by granulation tissue, the wound will be initially healed and the pain or swelling will generally disappear. 3-4 days connective tissue and epithelial tissue will gradually replace the granulation tissue, after 1 month fibrous bone will gradually replace the connective tissue, around 3 months complete bone tissue will be formed, at which time veneers can be considered. At 3-6 months, the mature bone tissue gradually replaces the immature bone tissue and the bone reconstruction process is completed.  It is recommended that after tooth extraction, do not lick or sip the wound, do not brush and rinse your mouth for 24 hours, and do not eat excessively hot or spicy, irritating food to avoid affecting the normal healing of the wound.
