Losing Teeth with Sjogrens Syndrome

Question  Are there any contraindications to the removal of teeth from an adult with Sjogrens Syndrome?
 
Answer  Sjogren's patients have an increase in periodontal disease which may have contributed to the loss of the teeth in the first place. I do not think this is problem when extracting teeth, but check with your dentist.
