HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
She should be reviewed by her dentist and doctor.
Her dentist can take a look at the dentures to see if an infection is still present and initiate treatment.
An infection would cause an increase in blood sugar due to the body's stress response to infection.
Her doctor can adjust her diabetes medications to allow for better control. If she is on high blood pressure medication and her blood pressure is too low, then these would need the be changed as well.
I hope this helps
