If an infection is present, it is best to treat the infection and ensure it is completely resolved before undergoing anesthesia for a dental. (this applies to other surgical procedures requiring anesthesia as well, but in emergency cases, or to treat life-threatening conditions, immediate surgery may be warranted).
In Muffy's case, best to let the infection completely heal before the dental.
