Your dentist: will take your history and monitor you. He/she is trained to do that and to offer appropriate services. Peace and good health.

Routine: Qualified General Dentists and Oral Surgeons treat patients like you, and many with even more severe medical and dental issues, on a regular basis with no problems. Key is to find a dentist whom you trust and discuss your concerns prior to the extraction so you will have confidence that you are in good hands and everything will be fine.
