Q: I have severe tooth decay from GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease) and several chronic illnesses. Should I get all my teeth pulled? I have diabetes, hypertension, GERD, and have had five back surgeries. I developed gum disease, presumably because of my diabetes and not being able to get treatment.
A: I would suggest consultations with a Periodontist and a restorative dentist to get a treatment plan.
