Dental problems but I want my TT very soon. Get my teeth fixed 1st or can I go under without fixing my teeth first?

As tummy tuck is a completely elective, cosmetic procedure, it is best to take care of a potentially complicating issue first. An infection in one area of the body can lead to an infection in another area, especially when it is compromised by surgical trauma. Discuss this issue further with your surgeon and your dentist.
Best of luck!

     I would recommend taking care of any ongoing infections prior to having an elective procedure like a tummy tuck.

Definitely the teeth.  When you have your tummy tuck you want to be in good shape, no sign of infection and no pain elsewhere. After your tummy tuck you want to concentrate on your recovery and enjoy the results. You don't want that to be spoiled by having to deal with dental pain, facial pain. If you did the dental work first, you would be a much better candidate for anesthesia, and your plastic surgeon and anesthesiologist would much prefer that.

If you have really bad dental disease, you are probably best to have that treated first. Best of luck..

If your teeth are infected, that can lead to systemic infection. This would contraindicate the tummy tuck.  Your dentist is the best person to ask whether any infections are resolved such that you can schedule the abdominoplasty. Good luck!
