@kc7adk54 Now I understand about the jaw fracture. I thought you had had an accident. That's really disconcerting that you had a jaw fracture due to the drug that was supposed to prevent fractures?? Also interesting, and no doubt frustrating for you that the calcium supplements did not help. My internist is recommending calcium citrate, along with Vit D of course with K which I was already taking.

@gigi05 I haven't had a jaw fracture, it just sounds from the data out there that it is a high risk outcome when having any dental surgery performed. And it seems contrary that something that prevents fractures in one part of the body could/will cause them in another. I'm sorry if I led you astray on my history. I've had extensive dental work in my life, and have no reason to believe I won't have more.
