I suspect they are called wisdom teeth due to the time they come in—at an age of supposed wisdom

Subject: Re: [Minutus] before and after a TOOTH EXTRACTION
I don't know why that old wives tale is still going around.
I consider it the other way round - NO surgery should be done without arnica beforehand.
A SINGLE dose will not increase or cause bleeding, and it WILL prevent any shock, which is a much higher risk with any anesthetic (especially general anesthesia).
[I base this on daily use of Arnica in practice at a vet clinic for about 5 or 6 surgeries a day, 6 days a week for 2 years. I'll leave the math to you...Not one death in that time, whereas without Arnica the death from surgery complications is 1 or 2%. ALso no bleeding issues of course.]
It does not if you dose once.
It may if you dose ten times before surgery

Then too.
But more important before surgery.
As for bleeding, if anything, a single dose of Arnica prevents it.
However mistakes happen (with the surgical knife) and if bleeding occurs, the quickest and most effective first aid is calendula tincture on a pressure bandage. For example if a tooth extraction area bleeds profusely, put calendula on a gauze wad or some such thing and place it over the area and bite on it a while.
As long as a blood vessel is not cut lengthways significantly, that will stop even quite severe bleeding VERY fast.
Hope you never have a next time but if someone did, and had only one 30C Arnica, I'd make it aqueous and take a sip before and after surgery, it may skip the pain altogether.
I know about curved roots too, mine had gone diving under the roots of other molars. I STILL have a piece of broken dental tool in there 40 years later.... I do not know why they call such teeth "wise"
Namaste,
Irene
