A 12-year-old crown came off tooth # 20, and the dentist advises that I have the tooth extracted because theres no way to remove all the decay in order to install a new crown.  I am scheduled to have my first Lupron injection for a recurrence of prostate cancer on the 29th of THIS month, and a second (3-month injection on the 26th November.  Is it wise to proceed with the tooth extraction in this situation?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. It is better to take opinion from your physician whether you can go for extraction or not. Usually there are no problems with this Chat Doctor.  But if you are taking bisphosphonate then there are chances of complications like osteoradionecrosis. Nothing to be panic, there are no other options, you need to get the tooth removed, but you have to get it done under certain precautions like taking consent from your oncologist and oral maxillofacial surgeon. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
