Treating Osteoporosis: What works for you?

So sorry to hear about these awful dental issues. This is a serious drawback re Prolia. My oral surgeon has me waiting until the six months are up to do an extraction (& endocrinologist as well) in order to ensure proper healing. I will need an implant later. Hard to juggle the dental work while on this medication.
Hope everything settles down for you soon. (Also hope this is not what I have to look forward to!)
I do find all of the osteoporosis drugs a bit scary.

Thanks for your kind reply. Due, I think, to the six month period of the prolia shot being up, my dental issues are slowly resolving. I had expected to replace the original implants, which had been in place for twenty years, with new ones, but I am having serious second thoughts now.
