Anesthesia

Not from my experience, and I've been under anesthesia at least twice while high. Pretty non-reactive stuff, that THC. It's very similar to chemicals in the brain (which were discovered after THC and named after it, endo-cannabinoids), so i doubt there would be any cross effects. Maybe increased chance of nasuea afterwards, but that would be it.

Anesthesiologists are conducting research to determine exactly how certain herbs and dietary supplements interact with certain anesthetics. They are finding that certain herbal medicines may prolong the effects of anesthesia. Others may increase the risks of bleeding or raise blood pressure. Some effects may be subtle and less critical, but for anesthesiologists anticipating a possible reaction is better than reacting to an unexpected condition. So it is very important to tell your doctor about everything you take before surgery.

PRIOR to wisdom tooth extraction you can smoke or consume up until You actually have the surgery. Unless You expect to get a drug test or think Your oral Surgeon would give You some sort of drug test. Just don't come in reeking of smoke.

AFTER EXTRACTION: The sucking part of smoking anything causes a wind tunnel effect in Your mouth. Even vaporizing will in some cases cause "dry socket" to occur. I suggest if You wish to feel the effect of THC , switch to cooking with it -add it to a butter or fat, make brownies etc... or have a friend "shot gun" smoke it and blow into Your mouth-friends have used straws to administer to the inner mouth that way a basic inhalation-NOT SUCKING on a joint/pipe/vape/bong etc.. After any tooth extraction, just refrain from making a sucking motion or breathing in with Your mouth "o-shaped" cigarettes are the worst.n KEEP MOUTH VERY MOIST.
