Tooth extraction

A massive thank you to so many kind kind people who took the time to help me out.True goodness. Dentist agreed, no need to stop although I had already missed one. Offending tooth is out.

I am having a tooth out at the dentist at midday and haven't been looking forward to it. I am on 3mg Pred and reading the post about the broken tail bone - wondered if a slight increase might help?

Hello, after 5 years on Alendronic acid my osteoporosis bone count is now worse -4.1 and so I am due to start Evenity (Romosozumab) once my tooth extraction has healed. I would be pleased to hear from anyone has experience of this medication please.

thank you so much to all of you that posted advice- I had the extraction- a gruelling process as the tooth crumbled and came out in bits. This was expected as it was previously root canal treated and the roots get brittle. Anyway I took an extra 1mg Pred that morning and felt ok.

I had a tooth extraction on Friday, but didn't think and wasn't advised to stop rivaroxaban the day before, as there was a 20 hour gap. Once I got home, the blood began to appear and built up to a somewhat worrying level despite biting down on gauze wads.

I just want to thank all the kind and helpful people who responded to my post about my husband's tooth extraction prior to triple bypass surgery.

Is it OK to have a tooth extraction 2 weeks after Rituximab infusion?

I have a tooth extraction I desperately need doing - but the risks of sedation or GA are too high at the moment and no-one will touch it until I get some kind of control over my thyroid so as well as hyperthyroid, I have tooth pain on a daily basis, sinus pain from TED and am generally miserable.

Got to have an upper tooth extracted on Tuesday. I take edoxaban 30mg. Last time I am almost sure I didn't have to stop taking it and there were no problems. I phoned the dentist to check and he said ask your GP. I KNOW i asked my GP last time and was told "ask your dentist".....but despite this

I know this is a well worn path!! As I was having extraction with dentist I'd never met, I specifically asked his preference and was told to continue Apixaban as normal.I did omit this morning's dose in spite of that. He was a super star asked if I'd eaten then said "I understand you've had conflicting

I may be in need of a tooth extraction. I am told by both Endocrinology and my Internist that it is OK to go ahead and take these type of medications now, but that is not the impression I received from my primary dentist. Another doctor, who does my annual breast exam suggested I wait.

I'm having the remains of a broken tooth extracted in two days time and because its apparently going to be a bit tricky, I'm going to be sedated. On offer is, - sedation by gas (nitrous oxide & oxygen) - intravenous sedation ( midazolam) The first option seems to have almost immediate recovery afterwards
