Yes you can undergo extraction. Just post extraction precautions need to be taken and followed. If you have any other medical problem like heart disease or any medicines you are taking , then need to tell your doctor before extraction.

Hello sir, the fasting blood sugar seems to be little high but it's not that too high for not going further for the extraction. Considering your age it's always advisable to see a physician just to be on the less risky side post the extraction. I hope i have cleared your question.
Thank you
Good day!!
Next Steps
post extraction you should properly take care of the wound around the socket of the tooth. just gargle with the warm salt water two times a day. avoid consuming spicy and hot food on that site. please follow up the medication courses aptly and rest everything will be taken care off.
