shoknot26, neither Tymlos nor Forteo carry the risk of jaw necrosis. Forteo is often given as treatment for patients with ONJ. Bisphosphonates, Prolia and Evenity carry the risk. I haven't taken Tymlos, but am on extended Forteo.
There are studies in (rats, I think) that show Forteo grows jawbone. Forteo hastens the growth and integrationof bone plugs for implants. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11996603/

Why extended Forteo. After considering Forteo and dealing with the possible side effects what will I do to maintain any gain. Due to Tori in mouth may/ may not be at risk for MRONJ but don’t want to take a chance What to do?
