Hi. I am stuck with nicht sanierter Zahnstatus. I know what that means, but don't know how to express it in English. I assume this would include loose fitting dentures, cavities, loose teeth, etc. - all things that would present a potential risk during surgery.
Thanks in advance!!!

Comment: "Thanks. Actually uncontrolled did work out fine. I looked its usage up. It applied well to the context. Poor dental status is fine in another context, but if a child has a loose baby tooth, this is not indicative of poor dental status, but is normal. Still, the child should not go in for surgery with loose teeth. Uncontrolled matches the German IMO. Thanks to both of you and especially to Klaus!!"
