The main concern my dentist had was whether or not my diabetes was under control, and that my blood pressure was normal (I also have hbp). He gave me an antibiotic prier to the extractions (8 teeth total, front lower).. and set in a lower (temp) denture the day of the extractions. We watched for any signs of infection, and everything went fine. I will add here, that the dentist did stick me with a pointed instrument both in front and behind my gums, to check how long I might bleed. Everything there was fine. How old is your father, and is his diabetes under control? Infected teeth can cause more complications.. you don't want to go there. Make sure his doctor knows what's going on. Good luck..<br><b>References : </b><br> Type 2 Diabetes here.

Make sure his doctor knows what’s going on.
Good luck..

It went amazingly well. I don't know about the stuff you are talking about, but I can tell you that I did just fine.<br><b>References : </b><br> I have type I diabetes, and had my wisdom teeth out four years ago.

I had no lingering effects as a result. Unlike your father, I am a Type-1 diabetic, however if you're concerned about his individual reaction to having teeth removed, consult both his endocrinologist/primary care physician and the oral surgeon and inform them of your concerns. Good luck to both of you!<br><b>References : </b><br> I had two teeth (back molars) manually extracted by an oral surgeon back in February. I had no lingering effects as a result.
