I had gallbladder surgery last year and I have an upcoming one this year for my thyroid but I was wondering, why is it that they ask about dental stuff. Why is it important for surgery? What happens to people who have emergency situations and have like bad teeth or something? Just curious.

Before they knew to give antibiotics for long, deep dental procedures, too many folks died afterwards. Doctors finally learned that people died because the germs settle in the heart. That’s what killed my oldest cousin and my best friend.
They both were losing their insurance soon and thought it would be a good idea to get a lot of work done. Healthcare in the US has always sucked.
