My dentist told me that I should be able to get back to work 2-3 days after the minor operation. But the last time I had one of my tooth extracted (not impacted molar), it got swollen for almost 4 days.
I just can't afford no to show up on Monday because its my first day at job!

if it's just one tooth then you'll be better with-in the next two days! you're gum and jaw might still be a bit tender and sensitive but if you take care of your mouth you'll be a star @ your new job! just drink your anti-biotics and painkillers (if the dentist prescribes you some of course). anti-bio. usually helps for the swelling! good luck!

It might be ok but I would recommend checking with the dentist again on the day of the procedure.

just make it doesn't get infected so i suggest you avoid eating food that you know can get stuck in the wound or something like that. rinse as much as possible to avoid the build up of food that might lead to infection and swell up your gums

No one can predict with certainty.
