I want veneers, but am treated monthly with a bisphosphonate. Am I risking osteonecrosis of the jaw? (photos)

Bisphosphonate drugs can cause osteonecrosis after extractions. Veneers are conservative on the tooth only. No bone is involved.

I would avoid any unnecessary dental work since you are on a monthly dosage of this medication. Usually it does not occur unless you are doing extractions and you have an on going infection in your mouth. I would make sure my gums and teeth were in pristine condition.  Try to do cleanings 4 times a year and practice really good oral health.  Possibly veneers would be an option since there should be minimal tooth reduction. You could try Kor Deep Bleaching which would allow you to keep your natural teeth, but it would eradicate all of the stains an discoloration and whiten at the same time!  Great system... I would take this route first because it is the less invasive one!  You do not want this condition of the jaw!  Good luck and God Bless!

Veneers are a very conservative procedure normally requiring minimal tooth reduction.  The osteonecrosis of the jaw due to these medications are associated with tooth removal i.e. extractions.  There should be no issue with having veneers placed.
