@ritafarmer my dentist told me necrosis of the jaw is a problem for you if you need dental work done that would involve anything with the bone, like an extraction because your bone can’t heal after the extraction. I’ve had fillings and a root canal done and although I’m not taking any of these drugs now my endo doc wants me to start with Prolia. My dentist said no and that was because there will be the day when I have to have teeth pulled out, like the root canal tooth, and then the bone will not heal where the tooth was pulled. I have other teeth with no fillings or crowns and she said they would be affected in the same way should they ever be extracted.
I have been on Reclast for 5 years and now off of it for 3 years. In those three years I’ve had fillings and crowns done with no necrosis problems. So, I believe it’s not from just having fillings or crowns done. Hopefully I don’t need to have any teeth pulled, with fillings or not, and face the consequences. All the same, I am saying no to any more of these drugs.
