[|Human|] My wife is suffering from excrutiating tooth pain due to lack of dental visits. They are basically rotting away. She says that when she goes to dentist they wont touch her because her blood sugar is high. At what point will the dentist decide it more important to extract the teeth and risk high blood sugar?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The pain in the tooth could be because of the tooth infection or gum infection. Consult an oral physician and get a radiograph done to rule out the infection. If the tooth is decayed with sufficient tooth structure and bone support, then it can be saved with RCT, Otherwise extraction can be done. Regarding your blood sugar level consult a dietician and get the blood sugar level checked and increase the dose and control your diet. Get a glycocylated hemoglobin level done, if it is normal then get the tooth treated. For the infection you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500 mg and metronidazole 400 mg TID for 5 days (if you are not allergic). Do saline gargling. I hope my answer will help you, take care. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
