Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows. 1. No, osteoporosis usually is not known to cause teeth discomfort or movement. 2. However, associated osteonecrosis of jaw requires evaluation. 3. X-ray of the jaw will confirm the diagnosis. 4. Meet your doctor for tests. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
