PAUL,
THE PROBLEM WITH HAVING WISDOM TEETH REMOVED IS A NEGATIVE VACUUM INSIDE THE MOUTH AS WHEN SMOKING, USING STRAWS, SIPHONING GAS,ETC.
WHY"
THE BLOOD CLOT OVER THE SOCKETS WHERE THE WISDOM TEETH WERE MAY BECOME DISLODGED. THIS MAY LEAD TO DRY SOCKET. THIS IS EXTREMELY PAINFUL.
ASSUMING YOU ARE TAKING AIR THROUGH THE NOSE AND BLOWING IT OUT THE MOUTH, THERE IS NO NEGATIVE VACUUM PRESSURE. THE POSITIVE PRESSURE DOESN'T CAUSE THE BLOOD CLOT TO BE LOST.
YOU CAN SAFELY PLAY THE SAX ON SAT. GOOD LUCK.

Well it depends on your doctor. I think you should not stop playing the saxo. But you should wait until doctor tell you than you are able to continue to play the saxo. Probably it would take you 3 weeks. Good luck.

Keep your gig date, start now, and deal with the pain, you need your chops. Just picture Dizzy Gillespie's Cheeks. If he can do it, you can do it. your chops are your bread n' butter, man.
