Best Answer

methotrexate will make you more prone to infections and that includes the gums and area around the teeth. I have been on Methotrexate for several years now 10 mg weekly along with 5mg folic acid daily and have had very little trouble from that area. It is best however to keep in front of anything that may feel like it could start to infect because it take longer to get rid of the problem then it used to.

Yes, some people are on methotrexate for life. It is okay to get dental work done. You just have to pay extra attention for signs of infection.
