Removal of septic focus by extraction of the offending tooth or teeth definitely diminishes the severity of diabetes of the patient, especially if the patient is under active treatment of his disease by a competent physician. Some schools of thought are of the opinion that peptic ulcers have healed or remarkably diminished in their potency after septic focus in the oral cavity has been obliterated. In a diabetic mouth, extraction of septic focus teeth can cause bacteraamla and sub-acute bacterial endocarditis, if it is performed without proper antibiotic umbrella. Eradication of oral sepsis by dental extractions and other procedures definitely plays a positive role towards management of the general state of health of the patient.
