Thanks for weighing in! My endocrinologist said root canals, crowns would not be an issue with bisphosphates but would be more concerned if perhaps needed an implant or extraction. Why Forteo or Tymlos as my doc suggested starting with Forteo or infusion, Reclast. I am so anxious about going on these bisphosphates. I am sorry to hear about your fractures - was it a trauma or just random movement? oxoxo

@semurrey every doc, book and video tells us to do a bone builder like Forteo, Tymlos or Evenity before a bisphosphonate or Prolia. In facct bisphosphonates may reduce the effectiveness of bone builder if used in the future. Docs tell me it is better to build a foundation of quality bone with bone builders and then "lock in" gains with Reclast or Fosamax.
