Zometa and dental treatment.
Has anyone had problems with dental treatment and bisphosphonates?
2 Dentists (One a friend) say OK to have treatment over next few weeks as only just going on Zometa.
My Nurse really uncomfortable and didn't want to give me 1st Zometa today because I need dental treatment. I repeated that dentist very confident that this was OK. Gave in and agreed to ask if dentist can see me earlier. Had a tooth removed last week because of this urgency and dentist not keen to do root treatment in tooth next to it for a week or so.
Zometa to be given at next cycle of treatment in 3 weeks or week before if dental treatment completed.
I don't think I can win either way. If I cancel treatment and teeth become a problem later I'll have had numerous IV's of Zometa and have to stop it. Even stopping it it's still in body. So surely this would be worse.
If I don't get it bone met a problem.
Dentist so confident and reassuring at my first visit that I was very comfortable with her.
Now not sure what to do!
