A little over a month ago I had my upper right wisdom tooth removed by my dentist. A month and a half before I had the upper right wisdom tooth removed and 4 upper right tooth cavities replaced (4 teeth in front of right wisdom tooth) . I was supposed to have both upper wisdom teeth removed but my dentist was unable to reach the right wisdom tooth the first time. I had no problems at all with the left wisdom tooth. It healed quickly.
