[|Human|] I went to an oral surgeon to remove a broken tooth that has become infected, problem is, they would not do the extraction because my BP was HIGH, (3 readings) 175/105, 175/113,and 150/109, now what? I need this tooth removed, any help would be great, thanks. Tom in Glendora, ca.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The tooth can be extracted once the blood pressure comes down, particularly the diastolic blood pressure is more than 100mmhg, it has to come down below 100. Consult a general physician and get it checked once more and alter the dose. Once it becomes normal then you can get your tooth removed. Meanwhile you can take a course of antibiotics. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
