Hello,
There’s no correlation between mental issues and wisdom tooth extraction. You need not worry on that. Apart from these, wisdom tooth removal should be preceeded with a 3 days antibiotic and analgesic course to avoid the postoperative pain , swelling etc. Other than that there’s no such complications. You can consult for further information.
