Should I let my dentist know what medications I’m taking? Do medications really affect my dental health?

Definitely let your dentist know what medications you are taking. There are certain anesthetics that cause high blood pressure. If the person has high blood pressure already, it makes the blood pressure even higher possibly to dangerous levels. So you always have to let your dentist know about the different medications you take.
