Hi.. healing takes seven to ten days. Fast healing medications are not required as body itself will heal properly. Use warm water with salt rinsing thrice daily for one week.

Hi. It takes around 3 to 4 weeks for complete healing. It may sometimes take more time if the wound is bigger. No medicine is needed to fasten the healing. Just keep that area clean by rinsing your mouth properly after every meal.

Normally it takes about 7 days for the primary healing of the extraction socket, but there is a definite variation from patient to patient depending upon the tooth extracted, the type of extraction procedure, systemic health, general nutrition and strict adherence to the instructions given by the surgeon....
there is no medication to accelerate the healing of any wound of the body..... all the medications that are prescribed after any surgical procedure are basically aimed at removing the factors that can delay the healing of any wound.....
Regards.....
