Hello. One of my fillings cracked a bit and now food often gets stuck between two teeth and causes pain and gum inflammation. I'm planning on getting an onlay, but I also need to remove impacted wisdom teeth about 5 months later (I can't do it now because of a certain medication that shouldn't be taken in case of oral surgeries).
The problem is, my dentist warned me that it's risky because wisdom tooth extraction can damage an onlay. I'm pretty surprised, as we are talking about 1st molar, not 2nd. How likely is this scenario?
