Dental Work

Did anyone get dental work after their surgery in Mexico? I was thinking it would be easier since I can't eat food anyway? But will it add to the pain (if any) and make it harder to heal?

How are you? I had my upper teeth pulled the same month I had the sleeve done, it didn't have any problems other than having my teeth removed, my doctor ask me if I wanted my mouth to heal before he did the sleeve, I asked him would it make it a problem for my sleeve healing and he said one had nothing to do with the other, and he was right because I couldn't eat anyway so it didn't matter, and you will heal just fine and you will be happy that you did it this way, so when you are able to eat; you can eat and not worry about your mouth, God Bless you and your family.

Thanks. The diabetes has worn down some teeth and I need fillings really bad. I have an extra day so I think I'll go for it. My coordinators said its available- might as well fix that too while I'm at it.
