My blood pressure is around 115/86 to 130/91 is it safe for me to get my impacted wisdom tooth removed? I'm a bit worried about the surgery with these readings, what do you think?

Many authors debate on this, but a general rule is that if the systolic blood pressure is over 179 and diastolic blood pressure is over 109, any dental procedure and surgical procedures become risky. So, 180/110 is the cutoff for any oral surgical procedure

View allI'm 15 and my lower jaw is overgrown on one side. It doesn't affect chewing or cause sleep apnea but I'm really self-conscious about how it looks. I'm pretty small for my age at 4'10 and haven't grown in about a year. Since braces aren't an option, should I wait until I'm 18 for corrective surgery or is it okay to do it now?

I'm on day 3 after having my left-side wisdom teeth removed, both upper and lower, and I've been having a lot of pain in my left temple. It's so bad that I can't sleep at night. I'm also worried because the left side of my tongue is still numb. What's going on here? Could you help me understand what's happening and what I should do?

What exactly happens during guided dental implant surgery I'm getting it done soon and feeling pretty nervous Also what side effects should I expect and any important precautions for the first few days after the procedure
Guided implant surgery uses advanced technology to ensure accurate implant placement, minimizing risks and improving outcomes. It involves a 3D model of your jawbone and implant placement plan, followed by surgery using a guide that helps the dentist insert the implant with precision. Expect some temporary side effects like swelling, bruising, and minor pain, but these typically resolve within a few days.
