How can you tell the difference between pain and infection from wisdom teeth?
Unless there is a nerve exposed, the pain typically comes from an infection. Depending on the circumstances, most dentist will not work on the tooth until the infection is taken care of first. The patient is usually given an antibiotic, which will take care of the infection, thus reducing the pain.
Can you get your wisdom teeth pulled when you have strep throat?
No, your wisdom teeth stays under your gum in the back of your mouth and it never comes out. When being tested in Scientific labs, Scientists know that wisdom teeth never come out in any infection, surgery, operation, etc. This is to my research, WIll [11] I had a sinus infection during just a dental cleaning and could not get rid of it for another 3 months thereafter. I would avoid a tooth extraction until you are better.
