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 allOne of my teeth got slanted to the side after an injury and I'm not sure if this needs surgery or if there are other ways to fix it. What kind of treatment would work best for this and how does the procedure usually go?
If a tooth has shifted due to injury, an orthodontist or dentist can typically assess the situation and recommend a treatment plan. This may involve braces, clear aligners (like Invisalign), or in some cases, surgery to reposition the tooth and jaw.
