Teeth Problems After Taking Prolia (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I took Prolia two months ago. I am developing loose teeth and sore spots on my gums. Have others experienced similar problems after taking Prolia? I go to the dentist regularly and have had no dental problems for several years.

Yes, have intense jaw pain, so far no loose teeth. On pain meds around the clock under the care of a pain specialist. Have also taken antibiotics which help temporarily. Has anyone on here thought about a legal case? If you have spoken with a lawyer how did that go? I can't find a lawyer to take this on.

I had severe jaw pain from just one injection the latter part of April 2015. Yesterday I went to my dentist. I do not have ONJ, but it is from a muscle in my right arm where the Prolia was injected and has caused a muscle on the same side to get very unhappy in my mouth. He said it is very difficult to get this with just one injection but I think he is 'thinking' more about it's predecessors - Reclast and Boniva. Prolia is in a world of it's own. You will have to go to a specialist and they will remove as much dead bone in your mouth as is possible and give you large amounts of antibiotics and a special mouth rinse. You may or may not be able to have implants or dentures. It all depends on how much jaw bone Prolia destroys. It makes me very sad to write this to you but that's what mine told me yesterday. Also make sure you call the FDA if appropriate for you and definitely the nurses at AMGEN. I'm so very sorry for you. Definitely a BAD drug.

A common side effect from Prolia. Get to your dentist immediately!!

I'm having severe jaw and teeth issues. Have had necrotic bone removed from my gums four times. Now having severe jaw, chin and cheekbone pain. Eating makes it worse. We need a legal suit or something to get compensated for the pain and expense we're having to bear due to this drug.

I'm going to my Dentist for an X-ray of jaw bone tomorrow. Just started hurting this weekend which is Memorial Day weekend. So far, I have had every side effect that Prolia offers and my Primary Care Doc is quite worried about me. It says the peak of Prolia is 26 days but lingers in the body for as long as 11 months. Amgen wrote we are supposed to receive a 'Dear Patient Letter'. I received zero and not even told to take Calcium/Vitamin D. Results of blood tests will be in tomorrow so I will post those when I get them. Liver. kidneys, EKG and chest x-ray shows all is well. Also have hives boils rash starting under my left arm. Calcium test was a little high and that is wonderful.

Hello, Dorrie! How are you?

You should see your dentist to have this checked out. In certain rare cases, Prolia can cause osteonecrosis of the jaw, it's unlikely, but it would be best to have it checked out, to be sure.

Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include headache, vertigo, sciatica, anemia and rash.

Is there anything else I can help with?
