Hello Nigel 
to Psoriasis Club.
I've been using Stelara for just over 4 years now and have'nt had any problems in relation to it's use and any dental issues. Also I have never heard of any relation between the two.
There is nothing in the what to watch for list whilst using Stelara.
* fever, sweats, or chills
* muscle aches
* cough
* shortness of breath
* blood in your phlegm
* weight loss
* warm, red, or painful skin or sores on your body
* diarrhea or stomach pain
* burning when you urinate or urinate more often than normal
* feel very tired
* are being treated for an infection
* get a lot of infections or have infections that keep coming back
Here are some threads about Psoriasis and dental that may be of interest
Gum disease linked to psoriasis
Psoriasis and oral health
However I would say your best option would be to talk with your dentist and dermatologist about your concerns, and please do come back and keep us updated as your input could help others.
Regards.
Fred.
