Wisdom teeth removal usually takes **30 to 60 minutes**, depending on the number of teeth and their complexity. Recovery time varies, but most people feel better within a **few days to a week**.
The length of surgery for wisdom teeth removal is variable, depending on the depth of impaction, and the doctor/surgeon providing the treatment. For an oral surgeon, most surgeries for wisdom teeth are less than one hour and is commonly completed under IV sedation.
