Hello! My name is Doru Naod. I have been diagnosed with diabetes type 2 in 2010 and I am under the care of a physician. I take metformin and another medication for diabetes. My BP is normally 139/81 but increases under stress or in the dentists chair for instance. I have several bridges and crowns in my mouth and they are all functioning normally. No infections no gum disease or inflammations. I went for an exam and x rays today. The doctor insisted on removing the bridges and perform implants even though there was no reason for such procedure. I asked for a normal cleaning instead of a deep cleaning since I have diabetes and I know the risks. She refused! I want to know if a regular cleaning would be helpful and where can I get it. Thank you.
