No results posted yet for this study

Summary

While there is no doubt about the benefits of antiresorptives, it is known that patients using these drugs are at increased risk of developing osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRNOJ), especially after oral procedures such as tooth extraction. The management of osteonecrosis has remained a controversial topic within the oral and maxillofacial surgery community.

The aim of the present study is to analyze the impact of topical pentoxifilline and tocopherol in the prevention and treatment of MRNOJ.
