Hello
As already mentioned to your query, you will have to visit a maxillofacial surgeon for your wisdom tooth removal. The surgery or the process of wisdom tooth extraction is a single sitting process and you can resume your normal activity by the second day. By 7th or 8th day you would be almost normal and comfortable eating food
