Been on reclast for 2 years. No side effects but now have dental issues. The oral surgon wants me to have a ctx blood test before he treats me. will have it next week. will find out results shortly after that. It will show me weather or not my gums will be able to heal or if the bone will remain exposed and infection could then appear. I need extractions plus maybe implants and dentures. He will not treat me if the results are not good.

Competent oral surgeon. Many dentist wouldn’t even know what a CTX was. I know this post is old, but how did you make out with your tooth? I’m on Forteo now, and CTX is 900+. I hope I don’t need dental work.
