Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a relatively rare side effect after prolonged use of bisphosphonates, which are drugs used to treat bone resorption in osteoporosis and certain cancers. This study introduces a novel ONJ model in rats by combining exposure to bisphosphonates, oral surgery, and bacterial inoculation. Potential ONJ preventive effects of polyguanidine (GuaDex) or antibiotics were evaluated. The study consisted of twenty-four male Wistar rats were divided into four groups. Groups 1 to 3 were given weekly doses of i.v. Zoledronic acid (ZA), four weeks before and two weeks after an osteotomy procedure on their left mandibular first molar. Group 4 was a negative control. Streptococcus gordonii bacteria were introduced into the osteotomy pulp chamber and via the food for seven days. On day eight, the rats were given different treatments. Group 1 was given a GuaDex injection into the osteotomy socket, Group 2 was given an intramuscular (i.m.) injection of clindamycin, Group 3 (positive control) was given an i.m. injection of saline, and Group 4 was given an i.m. injection of saline. Blood samples were taken two weeks after the osteotomy procedure, after which the rats were euthanized. Bone healing, bone mineral density, histology, and blood status were analyzed. The results showed that Group 1 (GuaDex) had no ONJ, extensive ongoing bone regeneration, active healing activity, vascularization, and no presence of bacteria. Group 2 (clindamycin) showed early stages of ONJ, avascular areas, and bacteria. Group 3 showed stages of ONJ, inflammatory infiltrates, defective healing, and bacterial presence, and Group 4 had normal healing activity and no bacterial presence. Conclusion: ZA treatment and bacterial inoculation after tooth extraction inhibited bone remodeling/healing and induced ONJ characteristic lesions in the rats. Only GuaDex apparently prevented ONJ development, stimulated bone remodeling, and provided an antimicrobial effect.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to evaluate digoxin, an RORγt inhibitor, in Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaws (MRONJ) in male rats treated with zoledronic acid (ZA). STUDY DESIGN Forty male Wistar rats were divided into a negative control group (0.1 mL/kg saline), a positive control group (ZA, 0.20 mg/kg), and three test groups treated with ZA and digoxin at 1 (DG1), 2 (DG2), or 4 (DG4) mg/kg. These groups received treatment three times weekly. ZA was administered intravenously on days 0, 7, and 14, followed by extraction of the left lower first molar on day 42, a final ZA dose on day 49, and euthanasia on day 70. Analyses included radiographic, histomorphometric, and immunohistochemical evaluation of the mandibles, western blotting of gingiva, and mechanical tests on femurs. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA/Bonferroni tests (P < .05). RESULTS Digoxin reduced radiolucency of MRONJ (P < .001), inflammatory cells, empty osteocyte lacunae (P < .001), apoptotic osteoclasts (P < .001), and Caspase-3-positive osteocytes (P = .021). ZA increased immunoreactivity for most markers except c-Fos, while digoxin reduced interleukin 17, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-2, FOXP3, c-Jun, NFκB (P < .001), TGF-β (P = .009), RANKL (P = .035), and OPG (P = .034). Digoxin also reversed RORγt expression (P < .001), increased diarrhea scores (P = .028), renal and cardiac indexes (P < .001), and enhanced femur mechanical properties (P < .013). CONCLUSIONS Digoxin attenuated MRONJ by inhibiting RORγt and reducing the Th17 response.

J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2024; 82:828-839. [PMID: 38621662 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2024.03.026] [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: 07/14/2023] [Revised: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a condition that can occur primarily in patients undergoing or have previously undergone therapy with bisphosphonates, particularly in the presence of risk factors, such as tooth extraction (TE). PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the effect of selenium (SEL) administration on the prevention of osteonecrosis of the jaw in an MRONJ animal model. STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, AND SAMPLE This study was a longitudinal in vivo animal study using a TE model in a sample of 48 Wistar rats. PREDICTOR VARIABLE The predictor variables were SEL exposure, timing of SEL exposure, and zoledronic acid (ZOL) exposure. The animals were randomly assigned to 4 treatment groups (n = 12 per group): 1) saline (negative control), 2) ZOL (positive control), 3) SELpreop + ZOL, and 4) ZOL + SELpostop. The animals were administered saline (negative control) or ZOL (0.06 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) once a week for 5 weeks. All rats underwent TE at the end of the fifth week. SEL (0.3 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) was administered once daily for 15 days to the SELpreop + ZOL group before TE and to the ZOL + SELpostop group after TE. All animals were sacrificed at the end of the ninth week. MAIN OUTCOME VARIABLES The primary outcome variables were new bone area, necrotic bone area, fibrosis, new connective tissue formation, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the histopathological analysis, as well as angiogenesis and percentage of osteoblasts in the immunohistochemical analysis. COVARIATES There was none. ANALYSES Statistical analysis was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by post hoc Bonferroni-corrected Mann-Whitney U tests, with a significance level of P ≤ .05. RESULTS The new bone area was higher in the ZOL + SELpostop group (3.00 score) than in the saline group (0.58 ± 1.08 score, P < .001) and the ZOL group (0.82 ± 1.40 score, P = .001), while the necrotic bone area was lower in the ZOL + SELpostop group (0.08 ± 0.29 score) than in the ZOL group (2.82 ± 0.40 score, P < .001) and the SELpreop + ZOL group (1.67 ± 0.89 score, P = .007). The percentage of osteoblasts was higher in the ZOL + SELpostop group (18.73%) than in the saline group (8.63%, P < .001) and the ZOL group (0.07%, P < .001), and it was also higher in the SELpreop + ZOL group (18.49%) than in the ZOL group (0.07%, P < .001). CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE In conclusion SEL prevents MRONJ, with postoperative SEL demonstrating greater prevention effects. Given these findings, we hypothesize that SEL exposure may decrease the risk of MRONJ.

Abstract
To investigate de effect of PAb gel on the bone tissue of rats submitted to Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ). Initially, 54 animals were submitted to BRONJ model by Zoledronic Acid (ZA) (0.1 mg/kg 3x/wk for 9 wk, ip), followed by the 1st upper left molar extraction at the 8th wk. After tooth removal, the animals were divided into 3 groups, ZA that received placebo gel or PAb gel that received 1% PAb gel, inside the dental alveolus. The control Group (CONTROL) received 0.1 mg/kg of 0.9% saline and then placebo gel. Three weeks after tooth extraction, the animals were euthanized, and maxillae were colleted for macroscopic, radiographic, histological and Raman spectomery assays. Additionally, GSK3b, beta-catenin, and Runx2 mRNA expressions were determined. Blood samples were collected for the analysis of Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP) levels. PAb gel improved mucosal healing, increased the number of viable osteocytes, while it reduced the number of empty lacunae, as well as the amount of bone sequestration. Furthermore, PAb gel positively influenced the number and functionality of osteoblasts by stimulating Wnt signaling, thereby inducing bone remodeling. Additionally, PAb gel contributed to improved bone quality, as evidenced by an increase in bone mineral content, a decrease in bone solubility, and an enhancement in the quality of collagen, particularly type I collagen. PAb gel mitigated bone necrosis by stimulating of bone remodeling through Wnt signaling and concurrently improved bone quality. PAb gel emerges as a promising pharmacological tool for aiding in BRONJ therapy or potentially preventing the development of BRONJ.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microorganisms and their by-products are responsible for establishing pulpal and periapical diseases. Healing is compromised in patients under bisphosphonate therapy, and the presence of periapical infections can potentially lead to the development of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). This work aimed to evaluate if bisphosphonate therapy is a risk factor for MRONJ development in the presence of periapical lesions. METHODS Two groups of 10 female Wistar rats were used. The experimental group received zoledronate (0.1 mg/kg) intraperitoneally, and the control received a saline solution, three times a week for three weeks. One week after the last injection, apical periodontitis was induced through pulpal exposure in the mandibular first molars. Twenty-one days later, the animals were intravenously injected with 99mTc-HMDP, and the radioactivity uptake by mandibular specimens was counted. In addition, sample radiographs and a histological examination were performed. RESULTS The bone loss was higher in the control group when compared to the experimental group (p = 0.027). 99mTc-HMDP uptake in the control was reduced compared with the experimental group, although without statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS In the presence of zoledronate therapy, apical periodontitis does not increase the risk of MRONJ development, and periapical lesions have lower bone resorption when compared to the control group.

Histopathological assessment of the preventive effect of leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin on bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw following dental extraction: An animal study. Heliyon 2023; 9:e17792. [PMID: 37483739 PMCID: PMC10362191 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e17792] [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: 01/28/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) could be considered a preventive measure in Bisphosphonate-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (BRONJ). The present experiment aimed to assess the preventive effects of L-PRF on osteonecrosis of the jaw in rats. Methods In this interventional animal study with a split-mouth design, 28 rats were randomly allocated to saline (negative control), bisphosphonate (positive control), and Bis + L-PRF (case) groups. Bilateral extraction of maxillary molar teeth was performed followed by random application of L-PRF to one of the extraction sockets treated with Zoledronic acid for four weeks. Clinical occurrence of BRONJ and histopathologic evaluations were done, and data were subjected to the Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney U test and exact Fisher test performed using SPSS 25. The significance level was set at 0.05. Results The application of L-PRF resulted in a 41.67% reduction in osteonecrosis centers and the number of osteoclast cells. Also, Kruskal Wallis test results showed a significant difference among the three groups regarding the frequency distribution of inflammation severity. However, no significant difference was detected regarding the frequency distribution of the blood vessels (Kruskal Wallis test, P-value = 0.649). Conclusion It could be inferred that possible preventive effects on the clinical occurrence of osteonecrosis could be expected from the application of L-PRF.

Effect of systemic antiresorptive medication on the histopathological parameters of implant osseointegration in an in vivo rodent study. BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:117. [PMID: 36810006 PMCID: PMC9945384 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-02763-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 02/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the osseointegration of zirconia and titanium implants in the rat maxilla in specimens under systemic antiresorptive therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS After 4 weeks of systematic medication administration (either zoledronic acid or alendronic acid), 54 rats received one zirconia and one titanium implants that were immediately inserted in the rat maxilla after tooth extraction. Twelve weeks after implant placement, histopathological samples were evaluated for implant osteointegration parameters. RESULTS The bone-implant-contact (BIC) ratio revealed no significant inter-group or inter-material differences. The distance between the implant shoulder to the bone level was significantly greater around the titanium implants of the zoledronic acid group compared to the zirconia implants of the control group (p = 0.0005). On average, signs of new bone formation could be detected in all groups, although often without statistical differences. Signs of bone necrosis were only detected around the zirconia implants of the control group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS At the 3-month follow-up, no implant material was demonstrably better than the others in terms of osseointegration metrics under systemic antiresorptive therapy. Further studies are necessary to determine whether there are differences in the osseointegration behavior of the different materials.

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 Promotes Bone Formation in Bone Defects in Which Bone Remodeling Is Suppressed by Long-Term and High-Dose Zoledronic Acid. BIOENGINEERING (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 10:bioengineering10010086. [PMID: 36671658 PMCID: PMC9854702 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10010086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
The use of long-term and high-dose bisphosphate is associated with severely suppressed bone turnover and the delayed union of fractures. However, therapeutic methods to overcome the negative effects of bisphosphonate use are lacking. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are powerful osteoinductive proteins. The development of the delivery system using BMP has been verified to have an excellent effect on fracture healing and the enhancement of osteointegration. We hypothesized that BMPs had similar effects as autografts in patients with decreased bone healing potential due to long-term bisphosphonate treatment. Forty rats were divided into the following four groups depending upon the materials implanted into the femoral defect after ten weeks of bisphosphonate (zoledronic acid) injections: Group I: absorbable collagen sponge (control); group II: demineralized freeze-dried bone graft; group III: autogenous bone graft; and group IV: rhBMP-2 with an absorbable collagen sponge. Radiographic union, micro-computed tomography (CT) analysis, manual palpation, and histologic analysis were evaluated. The radiographic union rate, manual union rate, and micro-CT bone volume in groups III and IV were significantly higher than those in groups I and II. Groups III and IV showed similar results to each other. Although the amount of immature bone in the BMP-treated group was large, the effect was similar to that of autografts in the bone defect model in which bone turnover was severely reduced by bisphosphonate treatment. BMP might be a good substitute for autografts in patients with decreased bone healing potential due to long-term bisphosphonate treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to volumetrically assess changes in the periodontal microstructure under antiresorptive therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Microtomographic scans from a total of 9 Dutch Belted rabbits having been randomly allocated to either the intravenous administration of amino-bisphosphonate (zoledronic acid) (Za) (n = 5) or a negative control group (nZa) (n = 4) were obtained at 10 months following a repeated drug administration. A quantification of the periodontal space thickness (P.Th) of both maxillary and mandibular most posterior premolars, as well as of the 2nd molars was performed. Bone micromorphometry was assessed by means of bone volume per total volume (BV/TV), the bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular number (Tb.N), bone surface (BS), and the specific bone surface (BS/BV). RESULTS Za was associated with significantly higher P.Th (P = 0.010), which was most pronounced in the upper jaw. Bone micromorphometry revealed no significant differences among the two groups, i.e., Za and nZa, for all the investigated parameters. CONCLUSIONS Volumetric analysis revealed that antiresorptive therapy was associated with periodontal space widening, whereas major effects on the bone micro-morphology could not be observed. CLINICAL RELEVANCE A deep understanding of specific periodontal and alveolar bone alterations in patients under antiresorptive therapy might help to prevent the onset of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (PDT), using methylene blue (MBO) and photobiomodulation therapy (PT), on the alveolar bone of rats submitted to bisphosphonate-induced osteonecrosis of the maxillaries (OMB) model using zoledronic acid (ZA). METHODS Sixty rats divided into six groups were used: SALINE, PDT, ZA, ZA+PDT, ZA+PT, and ZA+MBO. Three weekly administrations (Days 0, 7, and 14) of ZA 0.20 mg/kg or saline solution were performed. After one month (Day 42), the exodontia of the left lower first molars were performed. An additional dose of ZA was administered at Day 49. PDT was performed on days 42, 45, 49, and 54. One month after exodontia (Day 70), the animals were euthanized to obtain samples for imaging and microscopic analysis. ANOVA/Bonferroni tests were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS The ZA+PDT group showed a significantly lower percentage of apoptotic osteocytes than the ZA group (p<0.001). The ZA+MBO, ZA+PT, and PDT groups significantly reduced the number of mononuclear cells compared to the ZA group (p<0.001). The ZA+PT and ZA+PDT groups showed a significant reduction in the number of CD 68+ (p<0.001) and CD3+ (p=0.002) cells compared to the ZA group. The number of cells expressing INF-y had a significant reduction in the groups co-treated with PT and PDT compared to the ZA group (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS We conclude that PDT and PT attenuated the severity of OMB and the inflammatory process due to a reduction of macrophages, T lymphocytes, and cytokines that stimulate the activity of these cells.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a potentially severe adverse event affecting patients with cancer and patients with osteoporosis who have been treated with powerful antiresorptives (pARs) or angiogenesis inhibitors (AgIs). pARs, including nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (N-BPs; e.g., zoledronic acid, alendronate) and anti-RANKL antibodies (e.g., denosumab), are used to manage bone metastases in patients with cancer or to prevent fragility fractures in patients with osteoporosis. Though significant advances have been made in understanding MRONJ, its pathophysiology is still not fully elucidated. Multiple species have been used in preclinical MRONJ research, including the rat, mouse, rice rat, rabbit, dog, sheep, and pig. Animal research has contributed immensely to advancing the MRONJ field, particularly, but not limited to, in developing models and investigating risk factors that were first observed in humans. MRONJ models have been developed using clinically relevant doses of systemic risk factors, like N-BPs, anti-RANKL antibodies, or AgIs. Specific local oral risk factors first noted in humans, including tooth extraction and inflammatory dental disease (e.g., periodontitis, periapical infection, etc.), were then added. Research in rodents, particularly the rat, and, to some extent, the mouse, across multiple laboratories, has contributed to establishing multiple relevant and complementary preclinical models. Models in larger species produced accurate clinical and histopathologic outcomes suggesting a potential role for confirming specific crucial findings from rodent research. We view the current state of animal models for MRONJ as good. The rodent models are now reliable enough to produce large numbers of MRONJ cases that could be applied in experiments testing treatment modalities. The course of MRONJ, including stage 0 MRONJ, is characterized well enough that basic studies of the molecular or enzyme-level findings in different MRONJ stages are possible. This review provides a current overview of the existing models of MRONJ, their more significant features and findings, and important instances of their application in preclinical research.

Abstract
Background Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) is a well-known complication associated with antiresorptive and antiangiogenic therapies. The purpose of this study was to analyse if there is any predictive factor of recurrence after local debridement plus platelet rich plasma (PRP) placement in MRONJ patients. Material and Methods Seventy MRONJ patients treated at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in La Paz Hospital (Madrid, Spain) were included in this retrospective study. All of them were treated surgically by local debridement and PRP placement. The observation period was between January 2012 and January 2019. Information regarding use, type, administration, and duration of therapy with BP/denosumab was recorded. The follow-up period ranged from 2-52 months. A descriptive analysis, a bivariate and a multivariate study were performed. Results Most of the patients were women (82.9%) between 50-70 years old (64.3%), with a stage II disease (74.3%). The therapy lasted more than 12 months in 54.8% of them. Zoledronic acid was the main antiresorptive used (44.3%), followed by oral administered BPs (29 patients, 41.4%) and denosumab (10 patients, 14.3%). Osteoporosis (48.6%), breast cancer (30%) and multiple myeloma (11.4%) were the main diseases because the patients were taking antirresorptives. 13 patients (18.6%) experienced recurrence. We found that breast cancer patients (p>0.0001), smokers (p>0.016), and administration of zoledronic acid (p>0.0001) were related to recurrence. After performing the multivariate model, we found that the only factor related to recurrence was smoking habit (Wald 3.837, p=0.05, OR 6.12). Conclusions recurrence after local debridement plus PRP placement in our MRONJ series affected to 18.6% of patients. It seems to be more frequent in breast cancer patients, smokers, and after zoledronic acid administration. Smoking habit was the only independent factor related to recurrence in our series. Key words:Osteonecrosis of the jaw, recurrence, risk factor, bisphosphonates, zoledronic acid, denosumab, platelet rich plasma.

Abstract
Dentoalveolar surgery is probably the major risk factor for MRONJ and for other complications following a tooth extraction, especially in patients affected by systemic diseases. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate whether a PRF plug inserted in the post extraction socket can prevent the onset of MRONJ. The patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical protocol that included the insertion or not of the PRF following the extraction and all the anamnestic, and clinical data were analyzed. In the control group, 5 patients developed MRONJ (19.23%) while in the study group, any case of MRONJ was reported. In the control group, patients who developed MRONJ had a CTX with less than 100 pg/mL (5 high-risk patients, Spearman's rank r = .547, p < .001). The use of platelet concentrates in patients with high risk of MRONJ is a user-friendly technique with an excellent cost-benefit ratio in oral surgery.

Abstract
The study was aimed at investigating the effect of zoledronic acid on vascular morphometry in jawbones and long bones on a rat model. Twenty-four skeletal mature Sprague-Dawley female rats were administered oncologic dose of zoledronic acid (ZA) or normal saline for 4 weeks and then subjected to tooth extraction on the mandible and maxilla and a bone defect creation on the femur. After the surgical procedures, ZA or saline treatment was continued until sacrifice at week 2, week 4, and week 8 postoperatively. Vascular perfusion with MICROFIL was performed on all the animals. Micro-CT analysis demonstrated a tendency of decreased vessel density and vessel number in ZA-treated groups but no statistical difference. In conclusion, the neovessel formation is suppressed but not significantly by ZA treatment, indicating that angiogenesis inhibition may contribute to the development of MRONJ but does not play a key role.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect and timing of recombinant human parathyroid hormone analog (PTH) administration for preventing medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) using a murine model. After standardized MRONJ induction using zoledronic acid and dexamethasone injections, 48 female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups according to the timing of PTH administration before or after dental extraction. Rats were euthanized 3 weeks after dental extraction, followed by clinical and histologic analyses. No clinical improvements were observed in the preoperative and postoperative PTH groups, compared to controls (p = 0.638 and 0.496, respectively). However, on histological analysis, the number of empty lacunae reduced significantly, and the number of blood vessels increased in the preoperative PTH group (p = 0.004 and 0.002, respectively). The postoperative PTH group did not show significant differences for empty lacunae and blood vessels compared to controls (p = 0.075 and 0.194, respectively). The reduction in the empty lacunae and the increase in the blood vessels in the preoperative PTH group were significant compared to other groups, suggesting more viable bone tissue in this group. In perspective, preoperative PTH use may represent a better prophylactic regimen for preventing the occurrence of MRONJ after traumatic dental or surgical procedures, especially in patients with a history of long-term bisphosphonate administration or at high risk of developing MRONJ. However, the findings should be proven in further studies on other animals followed by clinical trials.

Abstract
Summary
Background/Aim: Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) was first introduced in 2003 and its scope was expanded by the name medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), since 2014. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of photodynamic therapy (FDT) on tissue samples by histopathological and histomorphometric examination and serum TRACP-5b (Tartrateresistant acid phosphatase-5b) measurement in rats.
Material and Methods: 24 Sprague-Dawley male rats were divided into 3 groups comprising 8 animals. Zoledronic acid was administered to groups 1 and 2 and 0.9% sodium chloride was administered to group 3 intraperitoneally. After the injections were completed, dental extractions were performed. Photodynamic therapy was applied to group 2, three times a weekfor the two weeks after the extraction. In the 16th week, sacrification was performed. Rats were undergone histopathologic and histomorphometric evaluations.
Results: Photodynamic therapy has led to a decrease in epithelial opening and inflammation and an increase in the formation of new bone. Serum TRACP-5b values were shown to decrease significantly in the presence of osteonecrosis.
Conclusions: PDT was shown to be useful in reducing MRONJ risk in rats. As a serum biomarker, Serum TRACP-5b could be a valuable marker. Additional studies should confirm the findings.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to evaluate bone repair and the development of the medication related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) associated with the use of zoledronic acid in Wistar rats. Methodology 48 male Wistar rats were divided into four groups: ZA, treated with intraperitoneal zoledronic acid, 0.6 mg/kg every 28 days, totaling five doses; control (C), treated with 0.9% sodium chloride; ZA-surgical (SZA) and C-surgical (SC), submitted to extraction of the right upper molars 45 days after the first application. Alveolar bone repair was evaluated by macroscopic and histological analysis. Protein expression evaluations were performed by qPCR. Results Macroscopic evaluation showed that 91.66% (11) of the animals in the SZA group and 41.66% (5) from the SC group presented solution of epithelium continuity (P<0.05). All animals in the SZA group and none in the SC group had bone sequestration. The area of osteonecrosis was higher in the SZA group than in the SC group (P<0.05). In molecular evaluation, the SZA group presented changes in the expression of markers for osteoclasts, with increased RANK and RANKL, and a decrease in OPG. Conclusion The results highlighted strong and evident interference of zoledronic acid in bone repair of the socket, causing osteonecrosis and delayed bone remodeling.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This work aimed to study the role of inflammation in medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) in rats with focus on Wnt signaling. METHODS A total of 36 female Wistar rats (12 weeks ± 200 g) were divided into 2 groups (n = 6) in 3 experiments: saline (SAL) and zoledronic acid (ZOL). For MRONJ induction, rats received 0.1 mg/kg of ZOL (ip) 3×/week for 9 weeks. Animals from the SAL group received 0.1 mg/kg of 0.9% SAL, ip 3×/week for 9 weeks. On the 8th week, 3 left upper molars were extracted, and on the 11th week, they were euthanized. Maxillae were evaluated by macroscopic and histopathological analyses; scanning electron microscopy (SEM); immunohistochemistry for DKK-1, Wnt 10b, and caspase-3; and Raman spectrometry. Gingiva was also collected for TNF-α e IL-1β quantification. RESULTS Bone necrosis was confirmed by healing impairment, reduced number of viable osteocytes, increased caspase-3 immunoexpression, and increased number of empty lacunae (p < 0.05). ZOL enhanced inflammation and increased gingival levels of IL-1β and TNF-α (p < 0.05). Irregular indentations were seen on bone after ZOL administration. Bone necrosis was marked by reduced amount of total and type I collagen. ZOL reduced the mineral/matrix ratio and increased carbonate/phosphate ratio. It was observed a significant reduction on Wnt10b and beta-catenin immunolabeling in the bone tissue of ZOL group. CONCLUSION In summary, MRONJ model caused bone necrosis due to intense inflammation. Wnt signaling seems to play an important role in this process. CLINICAL RELEVANCE New therapeutic strategies focusing on Wnt pathway can provide an interesting approach for future treatments.

Abstract
Objectives Melatonin induces human stem cells, converts pre-osteoblasts to mature osteoblasts, and reduces the duration of this transition. However, melatonin itself prevents activation of osteoclasts. Here, we evaluate the role of melatonin in prevention of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw. Materials and Methods In this experimental-interventional study, 30 rats were evaluated in 3 groups. The first and second groups received saline and zoledronic acid, respectively, for 4 weeks and the third group received 4 weeks of zoledronic acid and 3 weeks of melatonin simultaneously. First-right-maxillary-molar extraction was performed for all animals, which were sacrificed after 4 weeks of recovery. The extraction sockets were examined histologically for the presence of osteonecrosis, number of osteoclasts and fibroblasts, severity of inflammation, and vascularization. Data were analyzed by chi-square, one-way ANOVA, Tukey, Kruskal–Wallis and Fisher’s exact statistical tests (α=0.05). Results Osteonecrosis was observed in 20%, 90%, and 70% of the first, second and third groups, respectively (P=0.008). The lowest number of osteoclasts and fibroblasts was seen in the third group. Conclusion Melatonin may effectively prevent some undesirable side effects of bisphosphonates. However, further studies are required to confirm the results of this study.

Abstract
Background Dentoalveolar surgery is a predisposing factor for medication related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). The aim of our study was to evaluate the described surgical procedures to prevent the development of MRONJ after dentoalveolar surgery in patients receiving bisphosphonates.
Material and Methods In this retrospective study, sixty-three dentoalveolar surgeries were performed on 44 patients taking bisphosphonate in accordance with the treatment procedures we described. The following procedures were applied to patients 1) use of antibiotics 2) performed dentoalveolar surgical procedures 3) fill the socket with leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) 4) post-operative application of low level laser therapy through Nd: YAG laser 5) sutures were removed on post-op 14th day 6) long-term results were evaluated.
Results Healing of all patients was uneventful. Complete mucosal healing was achieved in all patients at 1 month. There is no failure was observed in long-term follow-up.
Conclusions Because of the pathophysiology of MRONJ is not fully understood and has many risk factors, definitive protocols on prevention and treatment have not been established yet. Personal risk assessment is required for the prevention and treatment of MRONJ. The described surgical protocol may be considered to reduce the risk of developing MRONJ after dentoalveolar surgery due to its high success rate. Key words:Tooth extraction, medication related osteonecrosis of the jaw, preventive dentistry, L-PRF, low level laser therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The main aim is to identify, by means of different imaging modalities, the early bone changes in patients "at risk" and in stage 0 MRONJ. MATERIALS AND METHODS A search of the literature was performed on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases, until June 9, 2020. No language or year restrictions were applied. Screening of the articles, data collection, and qualitative analysis was done. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used for observational studies, and the Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation's (SYRCLE) risk of bias tool for the animal studies. RESULTS A total of 1188 articles were found, from which 47 were considered eligible, whereas 42 were suitable for the qualitative analysis. They correspond to 39 human studies and 8 animal studies. Radiographic findings such as bone sclerosis, osteolytic areas, thickening of lamina dura, persisting alveolar socket, periapical radiolucency, thicker mandibular cortex, widening of the periodontal ligament space, periodontal bone loss, and enhancement of the mandibular canal were identified as early bone changes due to antiresorptive therapy. All those findings were also reported later in Stage 0 patients. CONCLUSION The main limitations of these results are the lack of prospective data and comparisons groups; therefore, careful interpretation should be made. It is a fact that radiographic findings are present in antiresorptive-treated patients, but the precise timepoint of occurrence, their relation to the posology, and potential risk to develop MRONJ are not clear. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The importance of a baseline radiographic diagnosis for antiresorptive-treated patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess the influence of ridge preservation procedures on the healing of extraction sockets under antiresorptive therapy. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 10 Dutch Belted rabbits were randomly allocated to either the intravenous administration of amino-bisphosphonate (zoledronic acid) (Za) (n = 5) or a negative control group (no Za [nZa]) (n = 5). At 6 months, the mandibular and maxillary molars were extracted and the four experimental sites randomly allocated to the following subgroups: (a) socket grafting using a collagen-coated natural bone mineral (BOC) + primary wound closure, (b) coronectomy (CO), or (c) spontaneous healing + primary wound closure (SP). Za medication was continued for another 4 months. Histomorphometrical analyses considered, for example, crestal hard tissue closure of the extraction site (C) and mineralized tissue (MT) formation. RESULTS Za-SP was associated with an incomplete median C (31.76% vs 100% in nZa-SP) and signs of bone arrosion along the confines of the socket. BOC had no major effects on increases in C and MT values in the Za group. CO commonly resulted in an encapsulation and partial replacement resorption of residual roots by MT without any histological signs of osteonecrosis. CONCLUSIONS (a) Za-SP was commonly associated with a compromised socket healing and signs of osteonecrosis, (b) BOC had no major effect on socket healing in the Za group, and (c) CO at noninfected teeth might be a feasible measure for the prevention of a Za-related osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is defined as the exposed necrotic bone involving the maxillofacial structures in bisphosphonate treated patients, and the pathophysiology of this disease remains unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of the allogeneic transplantation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) in a model of Wistar mice with induced MRONJ disease. BM-MSCs from five male Wistar rats were characterized and cultured on β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) granules. Thirty female Wistar rats were injected intraperitoneally with zoledronic acid and afterwards upper jaw molars were extracted. The animals were randomized to receive: Group 1: 1 × 106 BM-MSCs/β-TCP construct in the alveolar socket; and Group 2: Saline solution/β-TCP construct. A clinical and histological analysis was performed. Nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was assessed to verify the presence of transplanted male rat cells in the female recipient jaws. Clinical and histological findings evidenced that none of the animals in Group 1 exhibited uncovered sockets or bone exposure associated to MRONJ, whereas we detected 33% of MRONJ cases in Group 2. In addition, male rat cells were detected in the maxillae site four weeks after transplantation in the BM-MSCs-group. Allogeneic BM-MSCs in extractions sites ameliorates MRONJ incidence in zoledronic acid-treated rats compared to non-MSC treatments.

Abstract
Bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ), a post-surgical non-healing wound condition, is one of the most common side effects in patients treated with nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates. Its physiopathology has been related with suppression of bone turnover, of soft tissue healing and infection. Biphasic calcium phosphates (BCP) are used as a drug delivery vehicle and as a bone substitute in surgical wounds. Due to their capacity to adsorb zoledronate, it was hypothesized these compounds might have a protective effect on the soft tissues in BRONJ wounds. To address this hypothesis, a reproducible in vivo model of BRONJ in Wistar rats was used. This model directly relates chronic bisphosphonate administration with the development of osteonecrosis of the jaw after tooth extraction. BCP granules were placed in the alveolus immediately after tooth extraction in the test group. The animals were evaluated through nuclear medicine, radiology, macroscopic observation, and histologic analysis. Encouragingly, calcium phosphate ceramics were able to limit zoledronate toxicity in vivo and to favor healing, which was evidenced by medical imaging (nuclear medicine and radiology), macroscopically, and through histology. The studied therapeutic option presented itself as a potential solution to prevent the development of maxillary osteonecrosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the mandible and tibia of rats treated with bisphosphonates (BPs) by imaging and histomorphometric analysis. STUDY DESIGN Thirty-four rat specimens (Rattus norvegicus, Wistar strain) were distributed into 3 groups: (1) 12 rats treated with zoledronic acid; (2) 12 rats treated with clodronate; and (3) the control group, containing 10 rats that received saline. All bones were exposed to cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). The images were analyzed to determine bone density (BD), using the software OsiriX 7.0. Histological slides were prepared from the specimens and the proportion of bone volume (BV) was quantified using the software Adobe Photoshop CC. RESULTS There was no statistically significant difference in BD either between the drug groups or between mandible and tibia. BV between BPs and control group did not show a significant difference. However, comparing the two bones, the mandibles in the control group displayed higher BV than did the tibiae in the same group. CONCLUSION According to our results, we conclude that (1) BD was not altered by bone type or by type of BP administered, and (2) treatment with zoledronic acid or clodronate did not affect BV in the mandible or tibia of test groups.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) poses an ongoing challenge for clinicians and researchers. Currently, there is a lack of preventative measures available for at-risk patients undergoing tooth extractions, especially those with prior bisphosphonate treatment due to osteoporosis or bone metastasis diagnoses. Here, these issues are addressed using a preventative tissue engineering strategy against MRONJ development. This study evaluates the efficacy of a poly(ethylene glycol)-heparin hydrogel as a tool for the delivery of arginylglycylaspartic acid (RGD) and recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Three groups of skeletally mature rats each receive two doses of intravenous zoledronic acid prior to surgery and undergo extraction of the right first mandibular molar with gingival closure. Experimental groups either have the sockets left empty, filled with hydrogel minus rhBMP-2, or filled with hydrogel plus rhBMP-2. Eight weeks postoperatively specimens are analyzed using radiological, histological, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. µCT analysis shows increased bone formation with hydrogel/rhBMP-2 delivery compared to the empty socket. Hydrogel-treated groups display increased presence of osteocytes and increased osteoclastic action compared to the empty sockets. These results represent the first step toward improved delivery of rhBMP-2 and a potential MRONJ preventative for patients undergoing bisphosphonate treatment.

Abstract
Treatment of patients with bisphosphonate usage is a significant concern for oral surgeons because it interferes with jaw bone turnover and regeneration. In case of adverse effects manifesting related to bisphosphonate use, oral surgeons are usually treating and keep the patient's symptoms under control. In this study, we aimed to investigate a new treatment protocol for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). This treatment protocol consisted of administering human parathyroid hormone (hPTH) loaded chitosan microspheres which were prepared by ionotropic gelation method or/and the prepared microspheres were suspended in a poloxamer gel. After in-vitro optimization studies, the efficacy of the chosen formulations was evaluated in-vivo studies. Zoledronic acid was administered daily to forty-eight adult female Sprague-Dawley rats, divided into four experimental groups, at a daily concentration of 0.11 mg/kg over three weeks to induce the MRONJ model. At the end of this period, maxillary left molar teeth were extracted. In the first group, the subjects received no treatment. In the negative control group, poloxamer hydrogel containing empty microspheres were immediately applied to the soft tissues surrounding the extraction socket. The treatment group-1 was treated with local injections of poloxamer hydrogel containing hPTH. The treatment group-2 was treated with a single local injection of poloxamer hydrogel containing hPTH-loaded chitosan microspheres. Both treatment groups received a total of 7 µg of hPTH at the end of the treatment protocol. Our study demonstrates successful attenuation of MRONJ through a local drug delivery system combined with hPTH, as opposed to previously attempted treatment strategies.

Abstract
Background Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw is a pathological condition without effective established treatment and preventive strategies. The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) in an experimental murine model of osteonecrosis. Material and Methods 38 Wistar rats were injected intraperitoneally with zoledronic acid. After treatment, upper jaw molars were extracted. The animals were randomly assigned to one of two groups. In the control group, saline solution was applied over the alveolar sockets after the tooth extractions. In the treatment group, ASCs were applied instead of saline solution. The control and treatment groups were subdivided based on the time of euthanasia. A clinical and histological analysis was performed. Results The presence of osteonecrosis in alveolar bone was observed in a similar distribution in both groups. In the ASC-treated group, new bone formation was greater than in controls. Conclusions In this study, application of ASCs showed greater new bone formation in an osteonecrosis-like murine model. Previous inhibited post-extraction bone remodelling could be reactivated, and these findings appeared to be secondary to implantation of ASCs. Key words:Osteonecrosis; bisphosphonates, Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs), zoledronic acid.

Abstract
Background The exact pathogenesis of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is still unknown. The aim of this paper was to investigate the effects of zoledronic acid and dexamethasone on the early phases of socket healing in rats subjected to tooth extractions. Material and Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 2 groups: pharmacologically treated group (T, n=20) and non-pharmacologically treated group (C, n=10). T group rats received 0.1 mg/Kg of zoledronic acid (ZOL) and 1 mg/Kg of dexamethasone (DEX) three times a week for 10 consecutive weeks. C group rats were infused with vehicle. After 9 weeks from the first infusion, first maxillary molars were extracted in each of the rats. Quantitative macroscopic and microscopic analysis was performed to evaluate socket healing 8 days after extraction. Results Pharmacologically treated rats showed significant inhibition of bone remodeling. Connective tissue/alveolar bone ratio, osteoclast number and woven bone deposition were significantly reduced in group T compared to group C. Conversely, the proportion of necrotic bone was higher in group T compared to group C (0.8% and 0.3%, respectively. P=0.031). ZOL plus DEX do not cause gross effects on socket healing at a macroscopic level. Conclusions Our findings confirmed that exposure to ZOL plus DEX impairs alveolar wound repair. Inhibition of osteoclastic resorption of socket walls after tooth extraction and the inability to dispose of the necrotic bone may be considered the initial steps of MRONJ onset. Key words:Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw, zoledronic acid, dexamethasone, tooth extraction, rat.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dental implants and bone augmentation are well-established procedures used for oral rehabilitation. There is an increasing interest in biological mediators used topically for prevention of bone resorption maybe enhancement of osseointegration of dental implants. The purpose of the manuscript is to describe preliminarily the effect of bisphosphonates on the ossification pattern of bone grafts in a rat model. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty Wistar-derived male rats were divided into 2 groups study and control. Bone substitute was added to mandibular defects and was covered by a resorbable collagen membrane. In the study group, the membrane was soaked with bisphosphonates suspension. In the control group, the membrane was soaked with saline solution. Radiographic and histomorphometric evaluation were performed. RESULTS Radiographically, it was found that bone density was significantly higher in the study group. Histomorphometric analysis revealed a trend of higher bone volume fraction along with reduced bone substitute volume fraction in the study group, and increased number of osteoclasts and blood vessels in the control group. CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of our study it was found that there is a trend of increasing bone quantity and radiographic bone density by application of bisphosphonates.

Abstract
Objective This study was performed to determine whether the results of prevailing in vivo and in vitro studies offer a reliable model for investigation of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). Methods Embase, Medline, and the Cochrane Library were searched for articles published from September 2003 to June 2017 involving experimental approaches to the pathogenesis of MRONJ. In vivo and in vitro trials were analyzed with respect to the scientific question, study design, methodology, and results. Results Of 139 studies, 87, 46, and 6 conducted in vivo, in vitro, and both in vivo and in vitro experiments, respectively. Rats, mice, dogs, minipigs, sheep, and rabbits were the preferred animal models used. Osteoblasts, osteoclasts, fibroblasts, keratinocytes, macrophages, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells were the preferred cell types. Zoledronate, alendronate, ibandronate, and risedronate were the most frequent bisphosphonates used. MRONJ was most reliably induced in minipigs because of the close relationship with human bone physiology. In vitro studies showed that reduced viability, growth, and migration of cells in the bone and soft tissues were causative for MRONJ. Other than exposed jawbone after tooth extraction, no reliable cofactors were found. Conclusion The minipig is the most suitable animal model for MRONJ.

Abstract
Introduction The bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw was first referred to in 2003. Bisphosphonates action is focused on the osteoclasts. The drastic inhibition of the osteoclastic function is harmful for the jaws which are the only bones of the human skeleton in relative contact with the external environment. The adverse effects of the bisphosphonate-related therapy include the pathology for which they are prescribed, the atypical fractures in pathological bone. Method The aim of this research was to analyze the risk factors and the treatment methods in case of osteonecrosis of the jaws. To achieve these goals, the author analyzed the observation sheets of the patients admitted to the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinic during the period 2010-2015. The inclusion criteria were as follows: treatment with bisphosphonates, current or previous; the lesions of the mucous gingiva of the maxillaries followed by exposed necrotic bone, older than 8 weeks, with no tendency of healing; specific radiological image showing extended osteolysis with diffuse outline or radiopacity surrounded by radio-transparence, representing the necrotic bone sequestered; no metastasis in the necrotic maxillary bone; patient with no medical background of cervical-facial radiations. The patients who met these criteria were admitted in the study after signing the informed consent. Afterwards, the information found in the notes of the observational sheet (anamnesis, general examination and the imagistic investigation, treatment, postoperative recovery, prescription, postoperative recommendations) were gathered and submitted for statistic analysis. Results Of the 20 patients in total, 13 were women and 7 men, of ages ranging from 43 to 83. The most numerous cases were registered in the seventh age decade. All patients included in the study had lesions of the gingival maxillary mucosal areas with exposure of the subjacent necrotic bone. 60% of them were under intravenous treatment with zoledronic acid (Zometa®). A single patient was under oral treatment with bisphosphonates. 19 of these 20 patients developed osteonecrosis following a dental extraction while one case was due to the instability of the mandibular mobile prosthesis. 61% of the patients included in the study developed a necrotic process in the mandibular bone, 80% of the localizations were in the posterior area. As first intention, the choice of treatment was represented by local lavages with antiseptic solutions, general antibiotics and sequestrectomy. Of these patients, a third had relapsed and needed radical surgery treatment. Conclusions Prevention of the bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw represents the best method of treatment. The development of bone sequesters damages the volume of the maxillary bone as such, reducing the chances for prosthetic functional rehabilitation of the dento-maxillary system. An increase in the quality of life by oral restoration of these patients may represent a challenge.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Investigate role of dose/duration of zoledronic acid (ZOL), a powerful anti-resorptive (pAR), on prevalence of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) in rice rats (Oryzomys palustris), a species with natural susceptibility to food impaction-induced localized periodontitis (FILP). We hypothesize that ZOL induces MRONJ lesions in rice rats with FILP, and that the prevalence of MRONJ rises with increasing dose and duration of ZOL treatment. METHODS We performed a toxicology experiment with clinically-relevant doses of ZOL in female rats (N=230) fed standard (STD) rodent chow. At age 4weeks (baseline), 12 rats were necropsied. The rest were randomized into five groups that began to receive 0, 8, 20, 50 or 125μg/kg ZOL IV/q 4weeks. After 12, 18, 24 and 30weeks, subgroups (N=9-16) from each of the dose groups were necropsied. High-resolution macroscopic photos of all jaw quadrants were given a gross quadrant grade (GQG) (0-4 or MRONJ) that classified FILP lesion severity and determined presence of gross MRONJ. Quadrants with GQG≥1 were examined histopathologically. Logistic regression analysis (ZOL dose/duration) of MRONJ prevalence was completed. RESULTS We found: 1) 75% of 0μg/kg ZOL rats developed FILP lesions; 2) baseline rats and rats treated with 0μg/kg ZOL had no MRONJ; 3) 29 gross MRONJ cases were identified; 4) all gross MRONJ cases were confirmed histopathologically by the observation of exposed necrotic bone, and 53 new cases were discovered (total=82); 5) ZOL dose (P<0.001), but not duration (P=0.326), was a significant predictor of MRONJ prevalence; 6) 13% prevalence of gross MRONJ among all rats, with 22% prevalence among rats exposed to ZOL oncologic doses (20-125μg/kg); 7) 38% prevalence of histopathologic MRONJ among all rats, with 73% prevalence among rats exposed to ZOL oncologic doses. CONCLUSIONS This is the first experiment to show a dose response relationship between clinically relevant doses of ZOL and MRONJ prevalence.

[PMID: 29233701 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2017.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2017] [Revised: 10/20/2017] [Accepted: 11/13/2017] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ) is a complication of the bisphosphonate (BP) treatment and its pathopysiology is still not fully understood. The existing preventive and treatment options require updates and more attention. Geranylgeraniol (GGOH) so far demonstrated an increased activity and viability of the cells previously treated with zoledronic acid (ZA). The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo effects of GGOH on the development of BRONJ. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 30 male Wistar rats were included in the study, divided into three groups: two experimental groups (EG1 and EG2) and a control group (CG). Rats from EG1 and EG2 were treated with 0,06 mg/kg ZA ip weekly in a duration of five weeks, while CG received saline ip. On the third week all animals underwent extraction of the lower right first molars. The rats from EG2 received a local solution of GGOH in concentration of 5 mM in the socket every day after the tooth extraction. The analyses included clinical evaluation on the wound healing and pathohistological evaluation for presence and level of osteonecrosis. RESULTS EG2 showed significantly improved wound healing and tissue proliferation, when compared to EG1. EG2 significantly differed from EG1 and CG (p<0,05) for the presence of microscopical osteonecrosis (80% vs 22,2% vs 0%). Regarding to the number of empty lacunes without osteocytes and the level of necrosis, all groups demonstrated significant differences. CONCLUSION Geranylgeraniol in a form of local solution may be a promising option for prevention and treatment of BRONJ.

Abstract
Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ) has emerged as an important and increasingly common comorbidity, especially in patients undergoing long-term treatment with high doses of bisphosphonates. The management of BRONJ remains controversial. Surgical treatment is necessary in severe cases. Treatment of the bone requires sequestrectomy or resection. Given the lack of sufficient mucosa to perform the operation and fragility of margins in many patients, local flaps are crucial. We report two cases of stage-3 BRONJ presenting secondary infection with Actinomyces , receiving treatment consisting of marginal resection of the necrotic bone, reinforcement with a reconstruction plate, and reconstruction of soft tissues using a submental perforator artery flap ipsilateral to the lesion. Total cure was achieved in both cases, achieving favorable aesthetic and functional outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Zoledronic acid (ZOL) and denosumab (Dmab) are commonly used to treat bone pathologies. Because these drugs suppress bone metabolism, this study sought to compare their effect on bone repair after tooth extraction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 groups: ZOL 0.125 mg/kg, Dmab 0.25 mg/kg, or saline solution 10 mL/kg (control). After 1 week of treatment, the first left molar was extracted; the rats were euthanized at 28 days. The jaws were removed and photographed for macroscopic analysis of wound healing and then subjected to tomographic and histologic analyses. Immunohistochemistry was carried out against the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG). RESULTS No difference in wound healing, presence of inflammatory infiltrate and bone sequestration, or osteocyte expression of RANKL and OPG was found among groups. Tomographic analysis showed that the ZOL group had less alveolar resorption and more complete alveolar repair compared with the other groups. There was a statistically significant difference in the OPG marker in the control (P = .008) and ZOL (P = .05) groups when comparing the extracted and non-extracted sides. CONCLUSION Systemic use of ZOL can improve alveolar bone healing; however, the potential risk for the development of osteonecrosis should be considered. Higher expression of OPG seems to be associated with the control of osteoclastogenesis during bone repair.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this experimental study was to investigate the prophylactic effect of pentoxifylline (PTX) on medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). MATERIALS AND METHODS Female Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 33) received zoledronic acid (ZA) for 8 weeks to create an osteonecrosis model. The left mandibular second molars were extracted and the recovery period lasted 8 weeks before sacrifice. PTX was intraperitoneally administered to prevent MRONJ. The specimens were histopathologically and histomorphometrically evaluated. RESULTS Histomorphometrically, between the control and ZA groups, there was no statistically significant difference in total bone volume (P = .999), but there was a statistically significant difference in bone ratio in the extraction sockets (P < .001). A comparison of the bone ratio of the ZA group with the ZA/PTX group (PTX administered after extraction) showed no statistically significant difference (P = .69), but there was a statistically significant difference with the ZA/PTX/PTX group (PTX administered before and after extraction; P = .008). Histopathologically, between the control and ZA groups, there were statistically significant differences for inflammation (P = .013), vascularization (P = .022), hemorrhage (P = .025), and regeneration (P = .008). Between the ZA and ZA/PTX groups, there were no statistically significant differences for inflammation (P = .536), vascularization (P = .642), hemorrhage (P = .765), and regeneration (P = .127). Between the ZA and ZA/PTX/PTX groups, there were statistically significant differences for inflammation (P = .017), vascularization (P = .04), hemorrhage (P = .044), and regeneration (P = .04). CONCLUSION In this experimental model of MRONJ, it might be concluded that although PTX, given after tooth extraction, improves new bone formation that positively affects bone healing, it is not prophylactic. However, PTX given before tooth extraction is prophylactic. Therefore, PTX might affect healing in a positive way by optimizing the inflammatory response.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate a modified experimental model for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) through the upper right central incisor extraction followed by intravenous bisphosphonate administration. METHODS Forty five rats underwent the upper right central incisor tooth extraction were divided in 2 groups: Group I - experimental group, 30 rats received an intravenous administration protocol of zoledronic acid 35μg/kg into the tail vein every two weeks, totalizing four administrations, during eight weeks of administration, previously the extraction, and Group II - control group, 15 rats didn't received any medication before extraction. The groups were subdivided in postoperative periods: 14/28/42 days. Clinical analysis and microtomography were performed to verify the presence of osteonecrosis. In addition, descritive histological analysis of hematoxylin-eosin stained sections was performed to evaluate the presence of osteonecrosis or necrotic foci. RESULTS Twelve (40%) rats, from experimental group, showed clinical signs of MRONJ (p=0.005), however, all samples showed imaginologic findings like osteolysis and loss of integrity of the cellular walls (p≤0.001). Microscopic evaluation revealed osteonecrosis areas with microbial colonies and inflammatory infiltrate (p≤0.001). In the control group, all animals presented the chronology of a normal wound healing. CONCLUSIONS The presence of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw after maxillary central incisor extraction in rats. This new experimental model may be considered an option for the study of MRONJ.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aging brings a number of health conditions that can compromise the healing process in elderly individuals, significantly when it comes to bone tissue. The aim of the present study was to analyze the effects of zoledronic acid (ZL) therapy on socket healing of aged male rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-four Wistar male rats, 20 months old, underwent surgical procedures for the extraction of the upper right incisor and were divided into two groups according to the treatment: Control (C) - intravenous (IV) 0.9% saline, ZL - 0.035 mg/kg of IV zoledronic acid, both every 15 days. At the fifth dose of both substances, tooth extractions were performed and the animals were euthanized after 14 and 28 days. RESULTS IV administration of ZL caused OPG-RANKL system imbalance, resulting in deficient bone formation and remodeling and alteration of osteoclast morphology, as well as maintaining persistent inflammation during the healing period. CONCLUSIONS IV administration of ZL delayed extracted dental socket healing of aged rats, but not enough to cause osteonecrosis, raising a question about different responses to IV BP therapy considering animal age.
