Oral surgery FAQs

Does wisdom tooth removal hurt?

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so there is no pain during surgery. Dr. Castro prescribes medication to manage post-operative discomfort.

How long is the recovery?

For simple extractions, 2–3 days. For impacted wisdom teeth, 5–7 days for the initial recovery period.

When should I see a dentist about a wisdom tooth?

If you experience pain, swelling, difficulty opening your mouth, or a bad taste at the back of your mouth, contact Dr. Castro for an evaluation.

Is general anesthesia required?

Most oral surgeries are performed perfectly well under local anesthesia. Special cases can be coordinated with an anesthesiologist.

Can I drive back to San Diego after oral surgery?

For simple extractions, many patients drive back the same day. For more complex procedures, we recommend arranging a ride for your comfort.
