I was firstly prescribed alendronic acid tablets but after a fracture was discovered on my spine - was given an aclasta infusion (it is yearly)
Unfortunately I suffer with many problems with my teeth and during the year I had the infusion had to suffer dreadful toothache for 3 months before I could get appointment at hospital for extraction. My dentist would not extract it due to the aclasta infusion. The Consultants, nurses etc all quite happy to prescribe these biphosphonates but they don’t inform you of the possible problems with teeth. I was in agony and very depressed waiting for the extraction. I have now come off the drugs and I just take my Adcal. I realise I am at risk doing this but I cannot face the possibility of going through all that again as my teeth are my worst enemy.
