Depends on the type of stitches. 7-10 days for the most common ones (plain Gut).

I just had my wisdom teeth extracted. Any advice on what I should or should not eat a day later?


The stitches are likely chromic gut suture material and will dissolve in the mouth in about 3-7 days. No worries - this is just a small part of the recovery. If they are still in place at the time of your follow-up appointment, your oral surgeon can remove or trim them as he/she sees fit.
