I was out for almost two weeks....
after the first week, the swelling went down, after two I could finally move my jaw....bruised a little, I was all healed and back to normal in a month.
piece of advice: Make sure to brush back there as much as you can handle......dont be all soft around those areas, your gums need their strength....you dont want to get dry sockets, because it is the worst. I had to have a second surgery because I was brushing too gently....my scar tissue went crazy and covered my back molar.....needed to have it cut off again...pain in the ass...
So ya, brush you teeth....
