Absolutely not.: Behcet's disease is an autoimmune disease, affecting several parts of the body. It is not caused by missing or persisting teeth.

No: The cause of behcet's syndrome is unknown. It has symptoms that include recurring crops of mouth ulcers (aphthous ulcers, canker sores) there are other medical symptoms correlated with these disease. For the oral ulcers change toothpastes to one with no sodium lauryl sulfate (sls). Toms of maine and rembrandt are 2 of a number.
