I recently moved to a new town and will need to find a dentist/surgeon to remove my wisdom teeth. I also need a periodontal maintenance cleaning and a cavity filling..I’m wondering what should I do first? One wisdom tooth has a deep cavity and I do worry about it. I was thinking I could just get the teeth removed then do everything else after I recover?
 
Any symptoms from the wisdom teeth? If yes, get them done first, if not, then cavity filled first, then periodontal work and leave the wisdom teeth alone until they actually do cause problems.
 
@Gordon not really, rarely I’ll feel a little sensitivity if I eat something extremely hot or cold but it’s not often. Thank you perhaps I’ll just find a dentist and do the filling and cleaning first. Thank you for responding:)
