I have been given antibiotics and he advised me not to start the treatment until oral health is better. I’m now worried to start this tbh risks are scaring me. If someone could give me some encouragement as the dentist said ostencronosus can effect you with this treatment thank you Ingrid
I encourage you to give Prolia chance. I spoke with my dr and the Dentist and was reassured that ostencronosus Is very rare and that my condition outweighs the side effects. Talk to your Dr’s get as much information as you can, then decide what is best for your condition and your future. I hope this helps!
@A MyOsteoTeam Member. I am in the eighth year of twice yearly Prolia injections. Thank the Lord my teeth and facial bones are in good shape. I first took Forteo daily injections for 2 years when I was 52 after a big spinal fracture. Then received 2 yearly injections of Reclast IV. My treatments were not based on bone density scores. I had lousy family history on both sides, steroids for asthma and other factors- overweight, menopause in progress and arthritis of spine. 40 years of nursing took its toll too. Since starting Prolia after my second spinal fracture, I have not had anymore. Unfortunately no one can tell us if we will have a few expected side effects versus serious adverse reactions. Best of luck to you.
@A MyOsteoTeam Member, Hi, l have been on prolia injections for 7 years without much side effects.
If I don't have the injections I get more pain, as I tried to stop them last year. I have tried HRT , fosamax, actonel, calcium, vitamins, I have broken bones once since I started prolia, but early on. I still take vitamins C,D3,K2, magnesium, collagen & cod liver oil. I am stable now & am very careful not to fall.
Hope this helps. I am 78 & have had no teeth problems so far.
Cheers Josie D.
That’s very interesting to read…..I personally don’t want to start this treatment if I’m honest…unfortunately I can’t take alendronic acid..that’s why I had 4 zolodrenate infusion’s…and they haven’t helped..so they wanted me to start on prolia…how did you get this hormone treatment is it private or on the NHS? Thank you for your help with this …x
Your Dentist is providing you with the correct advice. I was on Prolia for nearly two years and my teeth started dropping out! I was living in Spain at the time. My Prolia treatment was discontinued when I returned to England. I had a difficult tooth extraction locally, thankfully my Orthodaedic Consultant stopped the continuation of Prolia and I went to see Maxio
Facial in the UK. This took a few months and I decided not to resume Prolia. Instead I took One tablet per week of Elondronic Acid. This produced considerable pain so I stopped it. I shall shortly be starting a hormone treatment which is a daily injection I give myself. On holiday next week so shall be starting the new treatment on my return.
