Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate in long-term periods the destruction of periodontal tissues and bacterial colonization induced by oral gavage with periodontopathogens or ligature experimental periodontal disease models. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-eight C57BL/6 J mice were divided into four groups: group C: negative control; group L: ligature; group G-Pg: oral gavage with Porphyromonas gingivalis; and group G-PgFn: oral gavage with Porphyromonas gingivalis associated with Fusobacterium nucleatum. Mice were infected by oral gavage five times in 2-day intervals. After 45 and 60 days, animals were sacrificed and the immune-inflammatory response in the periodontal tissue was assessed by stereometric analysis. The alveolar bone loss was evaluated by live microcomputed tomography and histometric analysis. qPCR was used to confirm the bacterial colonization in all the groups. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis, Wilcoxon, and ANOVA tests, at 5 % of significance level. RESULTS Ligature model induced inflammation and bone resorption characterized by increased number of inflammatory cells and decreased number of fibroblasts, followed by advanced alveolar bone loss at 45 and 60 days (p < 0.05). Bacterial colonization in groups G-Pg and G-PgFn was confirmed by qPCR but inflammation and bone resorption were not observed (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The ligature model but not the oral gavage models were effective to induce inflammation and bone loss in long-term periods. Pg colonization was observed in all models of experimental periodontal disease induction, independent of tissue alterations. These mice models of periodontitis validates, compliments, and enhances published PD models that utilize ligature or oral gavage and supports the importance of a successful colonization of a susceptible host, a bacterial invasion into vulnerable tissue, and host-bacterial interactions that lead to tissue destruction. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The ligature model was an effective approach to induce inflammation and bone loss similar to human periodontitis, but the oral gavage models were not efficient in inducing periodontal inflammation and tissue destruction in the conditions studied. Ligature models can provide a basis for future interventional studies that contribute to the understanding of the disease pathogenesis and the complex host response to microbial challenge.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a multifactorial disease in patients with primary or metastatic bone malignancy or osteoporosis undergoing systemic antiresorptive therapy, where pathophysiology has not yet been fully determined. The staging of ONJ is based on severity of symptoms and extent of clinical and radiographic findings. Treatment strategies range from conservative local wound care to aggressive resective surgery of all necrotic bone. The first ONJ cases were reported in 2003 and 2004, and although significant progress has been made in our understanding of the disease, much more work needs to be done to completely explain its pathophysiology.

OPG-Fc but Not Zoledronic Acid Discontinuation Reverses Osteonecrosis of the Jaws (ONJ) in Mice. J Bone Miner Res 2015; 30:1627-40.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ) is a significant complication of antiresorptive medications, such as bisphosphonates and denosumab. Antiresorptive discontinuation to promote healing of ONJ lesions remains highly controversial and understudied. Here, we investigated whether antiresorptive discontinuation alters ONJ features in mice, employing the potent bisphosphonate zoledronic acid (ZA) or the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) inhibitor OPG-Fc, utilizing previously published ONJ animal models. Mice were treated with vehicle (veh), ZA, or OPG-Fc for 11 weeks to induce ONJ, and antiresorptives were discontinued for 6 or 10 weeks. Maxillae and mandibles were examined by μCT imaging and histologically. ONJ features in ZA and OPG-Fc groups included periosteal bone deposition, empty osteocyte lacunae, osteonecrotic areas, and bone exposure, each of which substantially resolved 10 weeks after discontinuing OPG-Fc but not ZA. Full recovery of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive (TRAP+) osteoclast numbers occurred after discontinuing OPG-Fc but not ZA. Our data provide the first experimental evidence demonstrating that discontinuation of a RANKL inhibitor, but not a bisphosphonate, reverses features of osteonecrosis in mice. It remains unclear whether antiresorptive discontinuation increases the risk of skeletal-related events in patients with bone metastases or fracture risk in osteoporosis patients, but these preclinical data may nonetheless help to inform discussions on the rationale for a "drug holiday" in managing the ONJ patient.

Abstract
In the late 1990s and the early 2000s, bisphosphonates had become the clinical pillar of excellence for treating metabolic bone disease, and thus their connection with osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) caused significant concern. Over the past decade, progress has been made in understanding what is now referred to as medication-related ONJ (MRONJ), because of its connections to agents other than bisphosphonates, although in many respects the progress has been slow. This review highlights the key basic science and translational (animal) studies in the area of MRONJ and suggests areas of focus as the field moves into the next decade.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The treatment of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw has become routine in maxillofacial hospitals. However, the etiopathology has not yet been fully understood. The aim of this study was to develop a large animal model for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). MATERIAL AND METHODS Eight Swiss mountain sheep were randomly assigned into two groups. Group I received 0.075 mg/kg zoledronate (ZOL) intravenously every third week for 16 weeks. After 16 weeks, extraction of the first and second lower left premolar was performed. Group II underwent surgery and no ZOL was administered. After surgery, Group I continued to receive ZOL infusions; after 16 weeks, all animals were euthanized. The jaw bones were investigated macroscopically, radiographically (computed tomography) and histologically. RESULTS Osteonecrosis of the jaw was observed at all extraction sites in all the animals receiving ZOL, and at none of the sites in animals without ZOL. All ZOL-treated animals spontaneously developed exposed bone lesions in the oral cavity at sites where no surgical intervention was performed. CT imaging shows persistent alveolar extraction sockets 16 weeks after surgery in all animals of the ZOL-group, and healed alveolar extraction sockets in non-ZOL-treated animals. CONCLUSION Sheep treated with ZOL reproducibly demonstrated osteonecrosis of the jaw after tooth extraction, and spontaneous development of exposed bone in the oral cavity at sites where no manipulation was performed. This animal model can be used for further research in the fields of BP-ONJ etiopathology, oral implantology, bone and fracture healing and periodontology.
