I had to have upper and lower implants put in about 3 years ago and I have had lots of problems due to not having enough bone due to osteoporosis medication, which I told the prosthodontist I had taken Boniva for 5 yrs prior to being told I need implants. I had to have bone added to some areas several times in order to place the implants. The dentists I see now said I shouldn’t have gotten them and the prosthodontist shouldn’t have said I was good to go. Due to a failed implant I had to have the bottoms redone. I don’t mean to worry you or anything I just thought I should tell my story so that anyone considering implants that took osteoporosis meds can make sure the dentist checks to see there is enough bone before proceeding. A second opinion is good to get too. Also they are very expensive. Full set cost me 60K. Pain isn’t too bad just the waiting for the process to be over.
