I am 54 African American no and is not on blood pressure medication not really a blood pressure problem on mothers side but I have a rotten tooth that causes me alot of problems it is capped but rotten underneath my pressure has been high most days.  The dentist said it can cause all types of problems and family doctor he has not yet put me on pressure medication yet but I am going to get the tooth pulled out this week or next week to see if the pressure goes down
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The decay below the crown extending into the root cannot be saved. Consult an oral maxillofacial surgeon and get it removed, Before going for extraction get your blood pressure and RBS checked(considering your age). If the BP and RBS is under normal limits then get the tooth removed. If the blood pressure is high then you can consult a physician and take antihypertensives and later get the tooth removed once the BP comes to normal. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
