Typically, a tooth extraction does not take up to a year to heal. Most people experience initial healing within a few weeks, with complete healing of the gum tissue usually occurring within three to six months. However, factors such as complications, underlying health conditions, or infection can prolong the healing process. If healing seems unusually prolonged, it's important to consult a dentist for evaluation.

Do need antibiotic for a pulled tooth?

Not necessarily. It depends on your health status and how complicated the extraction is (i.e. surgical extraction of a wisdom tooth). Usually your body is able to heal itself and if you keep your mouth clean and follow the dentists instructions you should not have any complications after an extraction.

Once you get your wisdom teeth extracted how long does it take for the wholes to close up?

On the average about 2-3 weeks to fully regenerate. It is gradual to the point you will hardly tell. Gums have the capacity to heal quicky. Anywhere from a month to a year, depending on your body and the procedure that was done.

For each person it's different; each person has a different heal rate. There's a chance it won't heal, and there's a chance it might heal within a few days. You pretty much have to experiment and try for yourself.


Cartilage heals poorly and in many instances does not heal or recover at all after a severe injury Why not?

Cartliage take over a year to heal. When I got mine done it took about a year and a half to heal. This is because your cartilage doesn't produce it's own blood. So when you get it pierced it has to wait to get blood and oxygen from the rest of the body. So this of course is why it takes such a long time to heal
