Okay to get implant if have rheumatoid arthritis?

September 24th, 2010
Q.
I have rheumatoid arthritis which can lead to osteoporosis. Can this affect a full set implant? I had an infection in front lower tooth and a ‘shadow’ across the other front teeth. The hospital cut through the bone to remove infection, but it returned and my dentist decided to remove all 4 teeth, leaving me with a denture. I have problems with remaining back teeth, and a loose crown, which holds the denture. I already have trouble with the denture and as I have a shallow jaw, I don’t see how a full denture would stay in place. He has suggested implants. I am worried if the Rheumatoid Arthritis and various future medications plus the removal of bone from front teeth will have an effect on implants.

Q.
I have a dental crown over the dental implant I got a year ago. But for some stupid reason I have managed to crack the crown and I can feel that it is about to fall out any minute. A little bit has already come off and left a sharp edge which my tongue might get caught on. This is making me fearful to eat.
