How To Treat Swollen Lip And Toothache In A High BP Person?

My mom has a high blood pressure of 205/115. :( recently she's been having really bad toothaches. A few days ago she woke up and her top lip was so swollen. As if she got punched 4 times. She went to the hospital urgent care and they said they couldn't do surgery because of her high blood pressure.. Though they said she could die if she didn't get surgery! Is there anything we can do!? Please help!

Hello
Welcome to HCM
In case of high bp, no doctor touches the patient especially for surgery because high bp will not stop bleeding so, you first take her to cardiologist to control her bp by his consult then u can take her to dentist,
Thank you
