Chavarry NGM, Abreu PVB, Feres-Filho EJ, Pereira DMT, Maia LC, Molon RSD. The effects of sodium alendronate on socket healing after tooth extraction: a systematic review of animal studies. Braz Oral Res 2024; 38:e038. [PMID: 38747825 DOI: 10.1590/1807-3107bor-2024.vol38.0038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of this systematic review was to answer the following question: "Does alendronate, a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate, improve or impair alveolar socket healing after tooth extraction in animal models"? To this end, a systematic review of the literature was carried out in PubMed, Scopus, LILACS, Web of Science, as well as in the gray literature up to May 2023. Preclinical studies that evaluated alveolar healing after tooth extraction and the intake of sodium alendronate compared with placebo were included. Two investigators were responsible for screening the articles independently, extracting the data, and assessing their quality through the SYRCLE's RoB tool for randomized trials in animal studies. The study selection process, study characteristics, risk of bias in studies, impact of alendronate on bone healing, and certainty of evidence were described in text and table formats. Methodological differences among the studies were restricted to the synthesis methods. The synthesis of qualitative results followed the Synthesis Without Meta-analysis (SWiM) reporting guideline. From the 19 included studies, five were considered to have low risk, three were of unclear risk, and eleven presented a high risk of bias. The studies were considered heterogeneous regarding alendronate posology, including its dosage and route of administration. Furthermore, a variety of animal species, different age ranges, diverse teeth extracted, and exposure or not to ovariectomy contributed to the lack of parity of the selected studies. Our results indicated that alendronate monotherapy negatively affects the early phase of wound healing after tooth extraction in preclinical studies, suggesting that the bone resorption process after tooth extraction in animals treated with alendronate might impair the bone healing process of the extraction socket. In conclusion, alendronate administration restrains bone resorption, thereby delaying alveolar socket healing . Future studies should be conducted to validate these findings and to better understand the effects of alendronate therapy on oral tissues.

Arch Oral Biol 2024; 159:105875. [PMID: 38160519 DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2023.105875] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2023] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the outcomes of several rodent animal models for studying tooth extraction-related medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). DESIGN After a search of the databases, 2004 articles were located, and 118 corroborated the inclusion factors (in vivo studies in rodents evaluating tooth extraction as a risk factor for the development of MRONJ). RESULTS Numerous studies attempting to establish an optimal protocol to induce MRONJ were found. Zoledronic acid (ZA) was the most used drug, followed by alendronate (ALN). Even when ZA did not lead to the development of MRONJ, its effect compromised the homeostasis of the bone and soft tissue. The association of other risk factors (dexamethasone, diabetes, and tooth-related inflammatory dental disease) besides tooth extraction also played a role in the development of MRONJ. In addition, studies demonstrated a relationship between cumulative dose and MRONJ. CONCLUSIONS Both ZA and ALN can lead to MRONJ in rodents when equivalent human doses (in osteoporosis or cancer treatment) are used. Local oral risk factors and tooth-related inflammatory dental disease increase the incidence of MRONJ in a tooth extraction-related rodent model.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23052503. [PMID: 35269642 PMCID: PMC8910241 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23052503] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2021] [Revised: 02/11/2022] [Accepted: 02/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Bone regeneration after oral and maxillofacial surgery is a long-term process, which involves various mechanisms. Recently, cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has become known to accelerate wound healing and have an antimicrobial effect. Since the use of CAP in dentistry is not yet established, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of CAP on human calvaria osteoblasts (HCO). HCO were treated with CAP for different durations of time and distances to the cells. Cell proliferation was determined by MTT assay and cell toxicity by LDH assay. Additionally, RT-qPCR was used to investigate effects on osteogenic markers, such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone morphogenic protein (BMP)2, collagen (COL)1A1, osteonectin (SPARC), osteoprotegerin (OPG), osterix (OSX), receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK), RANK Ligand (RANKL), and Runt-related transcription factor (RUNX)2. There were small differences in cell proliferation and LDH release regarding treatment duration and distance to the cells. However, an increase in the expression of RANK and RANKL was observed at longer treatment times. Additionally, CAP caused a significant increase in mRNA expression of genes relevant to osteogenesis. In conclusion, CAP has a stimulating effect on osteoblasts and may thus represent a potential therapeutic approach in the regeneration of hard tissue defects.

In vivo and in vitro analysis in a rat model using zoledronate and alendronate medication: microbiological and scanning electron microscopy findings on peri-implant rat tissue. BMC Oral Health 2021; 21:672. [PMID: 34972519 PMCID: PMC8720220 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-021-02031-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2021] [Accepted: 12/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The aim of the present study was to assess the development of bacterial deposits and morphological parameters around dental zirconia and titanium implants compared with natural teeth during systemic bisphosphonate medication. Materials and methods Fifty-four rats were randomly allocated into one control group and two experimental groups (drug application of zoledronic and alendronic acid), with 18 animals in each group. After 4 weeks of drug delivery, either a zirconia or a titanium implant was immediately inserted. Microbiological analysis conducted 1 week, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks after surgery included total bacterial count and composition measurements. Samples were analyzed in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Bone cell morphology was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results One week after surgery, titanium and zirconia implants of the alendronic acid and control group showed a significantly higher bacterial count when compared to natural teeth in rats with zoledronic acid administration (p < 0.01). Less significant differences were recorded after 3 months, at which time no inter-material differences were evaluated (p > 0.05). I
n the control group, TEM analysis showed that the osteoblasts had a strongly developed endoplasmic reticulum. In contrast, the endoplasmic reticulum of the osteoblasts in drug-treated animals was significantly less developed, indicating less activity. Conclusions Within the limits of this study, neither implant material was superior to the other at 3-month follow-up. With regard to the treatment and complications of patients with bisphosphonates, the implant material should not be an influencing factor. Bisphosphonates can be used in the rat model to reduce not only the activity of osteoclasts but also osteoblasts of the peri-implant bone.
