Generally : Generally speaking it is preferable to avoid illness or additional medication during the ivf cycle. However, medical and dental issues also need to be addressed and resolved to optimize outcomes with ivf. So there is always a balance. I would recommend that you find out from your dentist exactly what they need to do, then speak with your ivf doctor. He or she is also invested in making sure you have the best outcome and can adjust your calendar or protocol if needed.

Get an evaluation: Wisdom tooth problems are best managed before pregnancy if possible because infections can rapidly spread and get into the bloodstream and complicate a pregnancy, as well as other things. Even though you have already begun ivf, you should obtain a dentist consult and xray (if no recent one of the area is available) and have a diagnosis made. Also check with the physician managing the ivf.
