Prolia treatment for osteoporosis: What is your experience?

My mother was on Prolia and lost all of her teeth which depressed her as she had spent $1,000's of dollars on implants, etc. At this time she was in Assisted Living. My sister, a Registered Dietician spent many hours with the kitchen staff trying to improve the flavor of her meals. In the meantime I was sending her handmade chocolates. She carefully place one on her palette every night so she could fall asleep happily. // I'm taking Tymlos.

Sarah: my heart breaks for you and your mother. I wish the outcome was different but, fortunately, the two of you dealt with the incredulity of the tragic situation with grace and love for each other.

Oh, my! I did not know you could lose all your teeth from Prolia. I knew you could get necrosis of the jaw. I wonder if that is what your mother had. My dentist told me it was so rare that I should not worry about it and I haven’t but after hearing your story, I am! You are a good daughter and I will put both of you on my prayer list. I have a lot of thinking to do before my next Prolia shot which is supposed to occur at the end of June. Thank you so much for sharing your mother’s tragic story. God bless her…and you. Yvie
