Debating Tooth Extraction, Has It Made Anyone's TN worse?

I have had TN type 1 in my V2 branch for many years. I still have all my wisdom teeth in, and I was wondering if anyone has any experience with getting teeth extracted while they have TN.

Has it made anyone's pain worse? Has anyone found some relief?

I am wondering if extracting the top left wisdom tooth might be a "low risk" bet to see if it might reduce some of my pain. Even though my shocks are usually localized near my left nostril / left upper lip.

I am atypical so it may make things different…but in my personal experience…I had all four impacted wisdom teeth surgically extracted because in my mind I was so sure at the time they were the reason for my pain…getting them out did not help nor make things worse. Recovery was a bit tough since they were impacted but that was just my experience. Everyone is different
