No: Mitral prolapse is common and generally not associated with extra beats despite plenty of misinformation on the internet that suggests that it is. Extra beats, if troublesome, should be checked out separately and, if necessary for bothersome symptoms, they can be minimzed with medications.

MVP: This is a typical constellation of symptoms with mitral valve prolapse. Occassion skipped beats are ok but if you ger rapid fluttering of your heart talk with your doctor. Sharp chest pain lasting seconds are usually normal. If your mitral valves is not too diseased you need not worry about infection from dental work. Once again, clarify with your doctor.
