Could be normal: If you are young and healthy and thin and in good shape, this blood pressure may not necessarily be abnormal for you, especially if you are having no symptoms. I would not delay dental work from just looking at the numbers, I would look at the way you feel. RJ

Inform: Because of your medical conundrum your extractions would best be accomplished by a Specialist,man Oral Surgeon rather than a General Dentist. Specialist has more training/experience managing medically compromise patient. Call the Oral Surgeon's office, report your blood pressure. Let the Oral Surgeon determine whether to proceed or to refer you for additional testing.
