Re: Zometa and dental treatment.
Hi Suzan
You mention having teeth crowned. I will probably need the tooth crowned after it is root treated. Goodness knows how my Nurse will react to that! She seemed more concerned with root treatment than an extraction - Would have thought extraction worse (from bone point of view).
The articles I've read re bisphosphates all say that after about a year bone strengthening plateaus - neither weakening or strengthening. They likened the effect to a dry or wet twig & which would break first.
I have to take bisphos. ( for bone mets) but just wish they could decide which professional knows best.
