Has anyone experienced a failure of dental implant ? I have and after a bit of research it seems there might be a connection with the failure and being on Remicade

Hi . I can't speak to this particular issue, but I want to share with you this page from the Johns Hopkins Arthritis Center on dental work and Remicade: https://www.hopkinsarthritis.org/ask-the-expert/dental-work-and-remicade/. It notes that TNF inhibitors, like Remicade, can predispose a patient to infection which could cause an implant to fail. I don't know if this was the issue in your case, but thought the information might be helpful. Hopefully others will chime in with their experience. Best, Richard (Team Member)
