Is it true that osteoporosis is associated with tooth loss and periodontal gum disease?
Yes. Multiple peer-reviewed reviews state that osteoporosis and its underlying bone loss are associated with periodontal disease and tooth loss, with one synthesis reporting osteoporotic individuals have roughly 1.13 to 2.63 times the odds of periodontitis. Some sources describe the evidence as still inconclusive or hedged, but the association itself is consistently reported.
