<p>Thank you for your responses. I guess we will wait until the consultation to find out how complicated it will be to remove them, whether or not they are embedded. I had two of mine pulled many years ago, was prepared for the worst, and it was no big deal at all, but I have no experience with having them cut out. I was afraid her mouth might be too sore to open it enough for singing and with auditions coming soon, I just am not sure about the timing. It would be more convenient for ME for her to do it now rather than waiting til December, but now may not be convenient for her and the doctor!</p>
