Is it safe to have wisdom teeth surgery while on Accutane?

I have asked my dermatologist and my oral surgeon this question. The oral surgeon says it's fine. However, my dermatologist recommends waiting until I have been off of Accutane for at least a month. So, now I am not sure what I should do as my wisdom teeth are bad enough to need to come out asap. Is it dangerous to have IV sedation while on Accutane? Should I stop a few days ahead of time or would that even make a difference? Thanks for your help.
