I have several broken and rotten teeth and i'm worried that the bacteria is spreading to my bloodstream. if this is the case what type of symptoms would i be experiencing? i see a dentist today for denture fitting. thanks?

Need to have these teeth extracted immediately. Long term spread of bacteria can lead to diabetes and possibly stroke. Also a sepsis can develop which is life threatening. Have your teeth removed today.
