Hello all!

I'm 7 months post-op, down 97 pounds with no regrets or complications. I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled in a few weeks and since getting my sleeve was the only surgery I've ever gotten, I was wondering what people thought was worse: getting their teeth pulled or getting bariatric surgery? I'm asking in terms of pain, recovery etc.

Wisdom teeth times 10!

For me it was the sleeve but honestly both were very tolerable. I also had a partial thyroidectomy and that was a breeze. Worst surgery was a 6 lb dermoid cyst. 50 stitches right down the center of my stomach. No laparoscopic surgery then. Ow. Ow. Ow.
If your teeth aren't impacted you'll be ok!

I had all four wisdom teeth extracted in 2000, when I was 19 years old.

The sleeve was slightly worse in terms of recovery, but only slightly. I returned to work the day after my wisdom teeth were extracted, whereas I returned to work 2 weeks after being sleeved.

For me getting my wisdom teeth pulled was so much more painful than the surgery.

But the dentist did not give very good pain management.
