    Unhappy Wisdom Teeth?

    Hello All,
    I'm nearing the end of my invisalign treatment, but now my wisdom teeth are beginning to irritate my mouth. I was planning to get rid of them soon. Call me crazy, but I want to get rid of all 4 teeth at the same time before I go on my trip. To do that I'll have to get them removed before my treatment (invisalign) is done.

    My questions are how long does it usually take to recover?,
    Is there a way to temporary suspend my treatment? or Can I still wear my trays after the extraction?

    any help is appreciated thanks!

    Almost!

    I had all 3 (missing 1) of my wisdom removed before starting treatment. Definitely recommend doing it all at once and getting it over with. Such a relief. I really don't know how it would affect your treatment though since I'm assuming your trays have the wisdom included?

    I had a fairly easy time. I went with oral sedation and don't remember a thing. I woke up at home and felt fine. Never had any real pain so the vicodin went unused. Nevertheless, recovery time was a good 3-4 weeks or so before I could open my mouth without any soreness. I don't think I would have enjoyed trying to mess with my aligners during that time since I have a hard time removing them.

    Good luck if you decide to go through with it!
