I'll be getting my wisdom teeth out on Tuesday, and I'm kinda nervous. I am a french horn player, so I'm scared that once I remove them, my playing will be different, or something during the procedure might go wrong, and I'll never be able to play again. I know the risks are low, but still, the anxiety is there.

I don't know a lot about french horn embouchure, but the third molars are pretty far back. I think you'll be okay on that front!
Being nervous before a procedure is normal and in my opinion healthy. It's the people who don't have any ounce of fear that I think we need to watch

I had my wisdom teeth out last year, and I was pretty nervous, too, especially since I played guitar and was worried about how it might affect my fingerpicking. But honestly, it wasn't as bad as I thought. Sure, there was some discomfort afterward, but nothing unbearable. Just take it easy, follow your dentist's advice, and you'll be back to playing your French horn in no time. As for tips, I found that sticking to soft foods like smoothies and mashed potatoes helped a lot during the healing process. Hang in there. You've got this!
