A member asked:
I was wondering if it was ok to get the flu shot before getting a couple teeth pulled within a couple days of each other.

should be ok: As long as the flu shot doesn't make you ill you can get it prior to extraction. You may also choose to get extractions then flu shot. Either way is fine.
