His evidence was his experience he had with his patients on the different osteoporosis drugs. His comments were only on dental health. He did not offer any osteoporosis advice. As @windyshores said, " Dentists are going to protect dental status and bone doctors are going to protect bones!" Just one solution is not for everyone. Many things to consider. No right or wrong, just a difficult decision after a person has considered all of the 'facts'.

@retired123 This is the problem. Dental providers lump all the osteoporosis drugs together and don't realize that not all of them cause dental problems. However, Evenity does suppress turnover to a lesser degree than biphosphonates or Prolia.

The best drugs in the context of dental concerns would, I imagine, be Forteo or Tymlos since they don't suppress turnover and necrosis of the jaw are not a risk with them. (My dentist had never heard of Tymlos but as soon as he heard "osteoporosis med" he had concerns!)
