Wisdom teeth pulling info

I have to get all four of my wisdom teeth pulled tomorrow. Here are my questions:

My family has a history of a kind of allergy to certain anesthetics. Is this common?

I want to be sedated for this procedure. Is this an option they give you or do you have to ask to be put out?

What is the dissolving material they make the stitches out of? It was used on me once and i had a reaction. They told me after they used it that the material was "cat gut" and I am allergic to cats. Is there an alternative?

And finally, will four days off work suffice? Will i be up and running enough on the 5th day to return to work when my job is talking nearly all day long?

Answer:

some people recover in a few days, some take 2 weeks. many feel you should get two out at a time so the recovery isn't as long. some dentists use dissolable stitches that come out in a week or so and some use ones they have to remove. ask your dentist which one you would least likely have a reaction to. being allergic to cats is not the same allergy as stitches made of intestine.

if you want to have sedation, some dentists do it andsome don't. if they don't, they will need to refer you to one who does.

To your body, stitches are a foreign substance, and the body is programmed to destroy foreign substances. Dissolvable stitches are made from natural materials, such as processed collagen (animal intestines), silk and hair, as well as some synthetic materials that the body can break down. This allows the body to dissolve the stitches over time. Usually, by the time the stitches are dissolved, the wound is completely healed.
