A few things: Stock up on some soups, soft foods like mash potatoes and some gatorade. Have someone watch you the day of the procedure if you are being sedated. Good luck. Hope things go smoothly.

Oral Surgeon: Make sure you have the procedure by a dentist that removes wisdom teeth on a regular and daily basis. Experience and knowledge can idetnify and minimize risks and complications. Most oral & maxillofacial surgeons would be excellent and some general dentists may be qualified as well.

Oral surgeon: Wisdom tooth removal more complicated at your age. For very best results, see oral surgeon for exam/recommendations/treatment.
