Comorbidity: Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) is a common medication for UTI and has nothing to do with wisdom teeth surgery recovery. While complications such as a delayed infection are rare, they are possible and easy to treat. Rec.: see your dentist or os for post-operative visit. Good luck.
