That's a very good question, unfortuantely I don't have an answer for you.

The best thing to do would be to call your Dentist and ask them. Some Dentist might require pre-med of anit-biotics for certain procedure and some might need clearance from medical Drs in case of possible bleeding problems.

Better to be safe than sorry and just give the DDS a call. But, please let us know what they tell you. I bet lots of other ladies could benefit from this information.

Best of luck to you!

Please call your Dentist to be sure. I can tell you from my own experience and 6 months on Lupron that I wish I had asked ahead of time.

Had root canal done and what a horrible experience !! Tooth has been hurting ever since and still have big hole in my tooth !!
I won't let them touch it for the time being. While they won't admit the Lupron had anything to do with it, I'm not so sure !!

Good luck and let us know !
