Hi! I got my rhinoplasty on October 5th, 2020 (so it has been less than a year). That was about 10 months ago, is it safe for me to get my wisdom teeth removed next week? Is there a possibility for this to compromise the results of my rhinoplasty? Should I try to make the extraction after a year or should I just do it next week?
I am scheduled to have my wisdom teeth out on Feb 24, and I just realized my rhinoplasty is schedueld for Feb 28. I am not having general anesthesia for the wisdom teeth, as they are fully erupted. From what I understand, I'm just having them pulled at the dentist's office. Will this affect my rhinoplasty? My teeth are not in great shape so I'd hate to have to postpone it. But of course I will if it is a concern. Thanks
I recently had a rhinoplasty consultation, but first had to get my wisdom teeth out. I had all four out and the two in my bottom jaw were impacted. I had oral sedation, was wide awake during the surgery, and afterward was in the most unbearable pain I've ever experienced. I was given Vicoden but it made me too dizzy and nauseous to use. Now, despite knowing my nose is immobile (unlike my jaw), I'm TERRIFIED of rhinoplasty, of being awake under IV sedation and again being in horrible pain.
Due to pain and crowding my dentist is recommending I have my 4 wisdom teeth removed. I can only have 2-3 weeks to take off from work/study (which is abroad) in the next few months, and I have a scheduled rhinoplastic surgery next month within that time. Would it be too risky to have my wisdom teeth removed 1 week before rhinoplasty?
*dumb question alert* I have scheduled my Rhinoplasty/Septoplasty/Turbinate reduction for April. I'm now doing research on recovery. I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed last year. While I had heard horror stories about pain and swelling caused from wisdom teeth removal, I had NO pain whatsoever, and not even the slightest bit of swelling. All 4 teeth were impacted and under the gums. Is this a sign that I won't swell as much after nasal surgery? Or is that just wishful thinking on my part?
