I could get a crown but I can't afford it. Any information on side effects with tooth pulled and Boniva would really help.
Thanks so much Pam for the advice. I truly appreciate it.

I was briefly on Boniva several years ago. Although I don't recall what type of reaction I can recall I was told to discontinue it due to the reaction.

Hello everyone. I'm new here and I'm still trying to work out how this site works, but here is my question
I have been prescribed Boniva, a monthly pill. I have been diagnosed a year ago, at a very young age (29) and I have been postponing taking the medication because I'm afraid of the listed side effects. However, my recent DEXA showed that my scores are getting worse and I'm really afraid of fractures. I have osteoporosis both in my spine and in my hips. I'm young and active and tried to… read more
I have been on Boniva going on three years now. I don't have any side effects. When I had bone scan this year it was actually doing better. 😊
My dentist told me I should have a tooth extracted but I heard it is not safe with osteoporosis.
Thanks to Cyndihorstmanshot, Julie7, and Nellpd for all of the information regarding dental work with osteoporosis.
