    I just had all mine out Thursday and hoping not too long lol... It also depends on how bad the wisdom teeth were. Like with mine i had a general anesthetic and they had to do oral surgery (cut into the gums ) so because of that mine will take up to 2 weeks. But if they are pretty straight forward extractions apart from the swelling and discomfort I'd say a week roughly.. Just make sure your friend keeps up the pain relief :)

    I took pills a few times and was fine after two days it was just a little harder to eat.
