The process of wisdom teeth recovery can involve several days of the patient resting and drinking clear liquids. Many times, the oral surgeon must cut out the molars, meaning that the patient will have stitches in his or her mouth. The stitches need to be rinsed with salt water to keep out infection. The person may be inclined to sleep a lot because of his or her pain medications. The patient should drink clear liquids.
