Lori, thank you so much for your comments. I agree with everything that you have stated. My oral surgeon did everything that you had stated and my tooth removal turned out great. I did do the option of a bridge and that is working out great too!

Hi Diane, I’m so happy everything worked out for you! Of course, there has to be disclaimers and warnings on all medications no matter how remote the possibility of side effects. But they sure put a spark fear in all of us.
I worked in the dental field for over 30 years and these osteonecrotic events are indeed rare. But fractures related to bone loss aren’t!
Personally, I’d have gone with the bridge option too. It’s a tried and true prosthetic for decades, easy to maintain and not as invasive.
Are you still taking Evenity?
