Hi 299928,

Here is a discussion on another group (CLL Support) that you might find useful.

Synopsis- inform dentist that CLL makes you immune compromised, so antibiotic pills and dental rinse may be appropriate. IMHO (with no medical training) a root canal is probably lower risk than implants or extractions that have lots of bleeding and gum disturbance.
