What is Teeth Extractions in BP-Treated Patients about?
This study investigates the outcomes of teeth extractions in patients treated with intravenous bisphosphonates, focusing on the risk of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ). Out of 64 patients and 220 extractions, BRONJ occurred in 5 cases (2.27%), with a higher risk noted in the mandible compared to the maxilla. The proposed surgical protocol appears to be a viable option for these patients, though further studies are needed to confirm its efficacy in larger populations.
