[PMID: 38886374 PMCID: PMC11183232 DOI: 10.1038/s41368-024-00312-0] [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: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 04/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
The overall health condition of patients significantly affects the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of endodontic diseases. A systemic consideration of the patient's overall health along with oral conditions holds the utmost importance in determining the necessity and feasibility of endodontic therapy, as well as selecting appropriate therapeutic approaches. This expert consensus is a collaborative effort by specialists from endodontics and clinical physicians across the nation based on the current clinical evidence, aiming to provide general guidance on clinical procedures, improve patient safety and enhance clinical outcomes of endodontic therapy in patients with compromised overall health.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the association between endodontic treatment failure and medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) in a cohort of oncologic patients in therapy with antiresorptive and antiangiogenic drugs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were selected as affected by MRONJ in absence of the common local risk factors (oral surgical procedures or ill-fitting dentures) but showing failure of previous endodontic treatment performed at least 6 months before the starting of antiresorptive/antiangiogenic therapies. Jaw lesions were all surgically treated and patients underwent a strict clinical and radiological follow-up. RESULTS Among 18 patients, who developed 18 MRONJ, the only detectable local risk factor was the presence of teeth with failed endodontic treatment (more precisely, root canal underfilling in eight cases, root canal overfilling in two cases, root perforation in three cases, root fracture in five cases). All patients completely healed after surgical procedure and no recurrence was observed. CONCLUSIONS Endodontic treatment failure should be considered a local risk factor for MRONJ development in oncologic patients. For such reason, it is mandatory to carefully evaluate them prior than the beginning of antiresorptive and antiangiogenic drugs administration.

Abstract
Strategies for management of patients with, or at risk for, medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) - formerly referred to as bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ)-were set forth in the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) position papers in 2007, 2009 and 2014. The position papers were developed by a committee appointed by the AAOMS Board of Trustees and comprising clinicians with extensive experience in caring for these patients, as well as clinical and basic science researchers. The knowledge base and experience in addressing MRONJ continues to evolve and expand, necessitating modifications and refinements to the previous position papers. Three members of the AAOMS Committee on Oral, Head, and Neck Oncologic and Reconstructive Surgery (COHNORS) and three authors of the 2014 position paper were appointed to serve as a working group to analyze the current literature and revise the guidance as indicated to reflect current knowledge in this field. This update contains revisions to diagnosis and management strategies and highlights the current research status. AAOMS maintains that it is vitally important for this information to be disseminated to other relevant healthcare professionals and organizations.

Risk factors associated with onset of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients treated with denosumab. Clin Oral Investig 2021; 26:2839-2852. [PMID: 34812959 PMCID: PMC8898220 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-021-04261-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2021] [Accepted: 10/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Objectives While risk factors of bisphosphonate (BP) associated osteonecrosis of the jaw have been properly analyzed, studies focusing on risk factors associated with denosumab (DNO) are sparse. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors influencing the onset of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) in patients receiving antiresorptive treatment (ART) with DNO by comparing patients suffering from MRONJ and patients without MRONJ. Multiple variables were evaluated including the impact of a previous BP intake. Materials and methods A retrospective single-center cohort study with patients receiving DNO was conducted. One-hundred twenty-eight patients were included and divided into three groups: I (control, n = 40) receiving DNO with absence of MRONJ; group II (Test 1, n = 46), receiving DNO with presence of MRONJ; and group III (Test 2, n = 42) sequentially receiving BP and DNO with presence of MRONJ. Patients’ medical history, focusing on the identification of MRONJ risk factors, was collected and evaluated. Parameters were sex, age, smoking habit, alcohol consumption, underlying disease (cancer type, osteoporosis), internal diseases, additional chemo/hormonal therapy, oral inflammation, and trauma. Results The following risk factors were identified to increase MRONJ onset significantly in patients treated with DNO: chemo/hormonal therapy (p = 0.02), DNO dosage (p < 0.01), breast cancer (p = 0.03), intake of corticosteroids (p = 0.04), hypertension (p = 0.02), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.04), periodontal disease (p = 0.03), apical ostitis (p = 0.02), and denture use (p = 0.02). A medication switch did not affect MRONJ development (p = 0.86). Conclusions Malignant diseases, additional chemotherapy, DNO dosage, and oral inflammations as well as diabetes mellitus and hypertension influence MRONJ onset in patients treated with DNO significantly. Clinical relevance Patients receiving ART with DNO featuring aforementioned risk factors have a higher risk of MRONJ onset. These patients need a sound and regular prophylaxis in order to prevent the onset of MRONJ under DNO treatment.

A retrospective study on the incidence of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) associated with different preventive dental care modalities. Support Care Cancer 2021; 30:1723-1729. [PMID: 34580783 PMCID: PMC8727393 DOI: 10.1007/s00520-021-06587-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2021] [Accepted: 09/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Purpose To assess the efficacy of different preventive dental visits and treatments in reducing the risk of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ). Methods In this retrospective study, patients diagnosed with MRONJ were divided into 5 groups based on available data: no preventive dental visits (group 0); dental visits and compliance with recommended treatments, at the university hospital’s dental clinic (group 1) or maxillofacial surgery unit (group 2), or at a private dentist’s (group 3); dental visits at one of the above and noncompliance with proposed treatments (group 4); patients judged eligible by the oncologist on panoramic radiography (group 5). Patients were classified on severity of MRONJ according to the Italian SIPMO/SICMF 2.0 staging system. A descriptive analysis was performed on the results. Fisher’s exact test was applied (p < 0.05). Results Ninety-three patients diagnosed with MRONJ were considered for the study, but 22 were excluded due to a lack of data, leaving a sample of 71 cases. MRONJ staging was only 0 for some patients (26.92%) in group 0. In all groups, the majority of patients had stage 2 MRONJ. The proportions of cases in stage 3 were 7.69% in group 0, 18.18% in group 3, and 43.48% in group 5. Groups 0 and 3 were somewhat similar as regard MRONJ staging. Most patients in group 5 had MRONJ stage 2 or 3. No statistically significant differences emerged between the groups. Conclusions Preventive dental care can reduce the risk of MRONJ providing patients comply with the specialist’s recommendations.

Root canal treatment of compromised teeth as alternative treatment for patients receiving bisphosphonates: 60-month results of a prospective clinical study. Int Endod J 2020; 54:156-171.

Abstract
AIM This 60-month prospective study aimed to evaluate tooth survival and healing rates after root canal treatment in patients taking bisphosphonates (BPs). Secondary outcomes were complications and clinical variables observed during and after treatment. METHODS Root canal treatment was performed using manual K-file canal instrumentation and a carrier-based filling technique with an epoxy resin-based sealer. Teeth without adequate root/crown integrity were restored by trained operators at the tissue level (TL group) to prevent occlusal/mechanical stress and to enable periapical lesion healing without the risk of root fracture. Other teeth were restored with normal occlusal contacts (OC group). Healthy patients who had undergone one or more root canal treatments of the same type constituted the control group. The relationships of the following variables to survival and health status were examined (chi-squared test and multivariate analysis, P = 0.05): age, gender, smoking habit, tooth location, treatment type, BPs treatment, BPs exposure, initial periapical index (PAI) and occlusal restoration. Survival curves were constructed using Kaplan-Meier analysis, with extraction serving as the end-point. RESULTS In total, 65 patients with 109 root canal-treated teeth who were taking BPs were included. At 60 months, data from 57 patients (52F, 5M; median age 65.7 ± 8.6 years) who had undergone 96 root canal treatments were analysed (drop-out rate = 16.9%). The survival rate was 85%, and the success rate was 76%. The control group consisted of 46 patients (21F, 25M; median age 60.3 ± 7.2 years) who had undergone 102 root canal treatments. The survival rate was 88%, with 12 teeth lost during follow-up. The success rate was 73%. In the BP group, 55 teeth were restored normally (OC group) and 41 teeth were restored at the tissue level (TL group). No difference in the success or survival rate was observed between the BP and control groups (P > 0.05). Univariate Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that only tooth type significantly affected survival status in the BP group. The analysis revealed the clinical relevance of smoking, tooth location and initial PAI on patients' health status (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Root canal treatments and post-endodontic restoration with tissue-level filling procedures represent a safe approach for severely damaged teeth in patients receiving BPs having comparable results to root filled teeth restored with occlusal contacts and to the control group.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the study is to evaluate the results of apical surgery (AS) in patients receiving high-dose antiresorptive medication (HDAR). METHODS Retrospective descriptive quality control study conducted in an Oral and Maxillofacial Department at a University Hospital. Fourteen patients on HDAR met the inclusion criteria. Only descriptive statistics were applied. RESULTS Fourteen patients had operation on seventeen teeth. Mean HDAR treatment period before apical surgery: 25 months (SD, ± 24.27; range, 1-78 months). Drug holiday during surgery and initial healing: mean, 8 months (SD, ± 5.96; range, 0.4-22 months). Sixteen out of seventeen teeth healed clinically and showed complete or ongoing radiographic healing. All patients except one became free of symptoms. Mean follow-up: 13 months (SD, ± 9.05; range, 2-31 months). Radiographic healing according to Molven and Rud: 7, complete; 6, uncertain; 1, unsatisfactory. Three patients died during follow-up and were considered drop-outs. CONCLUSIONS The present case series suggest that apical surgery is a valid treatment option for apical periodontitis in patients on HDAR, where orthograde endodontic retreatment is not possible. None of the patients developed medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw. Further studies in larger study groups and with longer follow-up periods are needed. The regional scientific ethical committee provided a document exemption, registration date 20 November 2013, and the local data protection agency approved handling of the recorded data (No. 2012-41-0045), registration date 11 January 2012.

Abstract
Antiresorptive drugs (ARDs), such as bisphosphonates or denosumab, that prevent bone resorption are widely used in patients with osteoporosis or with cancer that has metastasized to the bones. Although osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a well-documented complication of ARD use, the benefits ARDs outweigh the complication. Thus, research has focused on finding ways to prevent or reduce the risk of developing ONJ. Dentists, as part of a multi-professional team, have a critical role in preventing ONJ. However, many dentists tend to hesitate to provide dental care to patients with ONJ, or tend to think that it is a problem to be dealt with by oral surgeons. This review gives an overview of ARD-related ONJ and provides the guidelines for dental care in patients taking ARDs to lower the risk of developing ONJ.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a serious adverse reaction of antiresorptive and antiangiogenic agents; it is a potentially painful and debilitating condition that can considerably affect the quality of life of patients. Furthermore, even if its epidemiology and pathogenesis have still not been fully clarified, several risk factors related to MRONJ have been recognized in prevention protocols. Three main risk factors are as follows: (i) the type of ONJ-related medications: antiresorptive (e.g., Bisphosphonates, Denosumab) and antiangiogenic drugs (e.g., Bevacizumab, Sunitinib); (ii) the category of patient at MRONJ risk: cancer versus non-cancer patient; (iii) the typologies and timing of dental treatments (e.g., before, during, or after the drug administration). The aim of this paper is to describe the new paradigm by the Italian Society of Oral Pathology and Medicine (SIPMO) on preventive dental management in patients at risk of MRONJ, prior to and during/after the administration of the aforementioned ONJ-related drugs. In reducing the risk of MRONJ, dentists and oral hygienists are key figures in applying a correct protocol of primary prevention for pre-treatment and in-treatment patients. However, the necessity of a multidisciplinary standardized approach, with a sustained dialogue among specialists involved, should be always adopted in order to improve the efficacy of preventive strategies and to ameliorate the patient's quality of life.

Braz Dent J 2018; 28:566-572.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the imaging and histological features of experimental periapical lesions, including the adjacent alveolar bone, in rats under zoledronic acid treatment. The study used 40 male Wistar rats distributed into 8 groups of 5 animals each: G1: induction of periapical lesion (PL) and weekly intraperitoneal administration (WIPA) of saline solution (0.9% NaCl) for 4 weeks; G2: PL induction and WIPA of zoledronic acid (0.15 mg/kg/week) for 4 weeks; G3: PL induction and WIPA of saline solution for 8 weeks; G4: PL induction and WIPA of zoledronic acid for 8 weeks; G5:WIPA of saline solution for 4 weeks and subsequent PL induction; G6: WIPA of zoledronic acid for 4 weeks and subsequent PL induction; G7: WIPA of saline solution for 8 weeks and subsequent PL induction; G8: WIPA of zoledronic acid for 8 weeks and subsequent PL induction. The administration of zoledronic acid or saline solution continued after PL induction until the euthanasia. Thus, cone beam computed tomography and histological analysis were performed. Statistical analyzes were performed by ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis test. Groups treated with zoledronic acid showed significantly smaller size of PL than the groups treated with 0.9% NaCl (p<0.05). PLs were formed by chronic inflammation ranging from mild to moderate, with no difference between groups. In all specimens, no mandibular necrosis was observed. In conclusion, the presence of PLs apparently does not represent an important risk factor for the development of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws.

Abstract
Antiresorptives and antiangiogenics are treatments that have proven effective in oncology and the treatment of osteoporosis and they are increasingly prescribed. The care of these patients requires collaboration between the prescriber and the oral health professional to establish an optimized treatment plan. Therapeutic education of the patient is essential for him to understand the issues of good oral health and the adverse effects that can be caused by these treatments. The management is essentially based on the individual benefit/risk balance resulting from the general, local and inherent of the molecule risk factors. Management of drug-related osteonecrosis of the jaw should be as early as possible.

Abstract
AIM To characterize the pulp immune cell profile in the teeth of rats treated with zoledronic acid (ZA). METHODOLOGY Male Wistar rats (n = 6 per group) received four intravenous infusions of ZA at doses of 0.04, 0.20 or 1.00 mg kg-1 ZA or saline (control). On the 70th experimental day, they were euthanized. The first right molar was examined microscopically and submitted to toluidine blue reaction and immunohistochemical for CD68, tumour necrosis Factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) and IL-18 binding protein (IL-18 bp). The presence of ectasic/dilated vessels and inflammatory cells was analysed, and mast cells and mononuclear CD68-positive cells were counted along with the intensity of immunostaining (0-3) for inflammatory markers in odontoblasts and nonodontoblasts pulp cells. The Kruskal-Wallis/Dunn's test (scores or quantitative data) and the chi-squared test (categorical data) were used (GraphPad Prism 5.0, P < 0.05). RESULTS There was no differences in the number of animals exhibiting dilated/ectasic blood vessels (P = 0.242) and inflammatory cells (P = 0.489) or in the number of mast cells (P = 1.000). However, there was an increase in mononuclear CD68-positive cells (P = 0.026), immunostaining of TNF-α (P = 0.020), IL-1β (P = 0.027) and iNOS (P = 0.001) in odontoblasts, and IL-1β (P = 0.013) in nonodontoblast pulp cells dose-dependently. NFkB (nucleus and cytoplasm) and IL-18 bp did not differ between groups. CONCLUSION ZA modified the immune cell profile in the dental pulp, increasing the number of macrophages and expression of pro-inflammatory markers independent of NFkB.

Abstract
A 78-year-old man with a history osteonecrosis of the jaw and 2 subsequent surgeries to repair a fractured mandible had a condition that contraindicates most dentoalveolar procedures to restore his failing dentition. A Snap-On-Smile overdenture restored his opportunity for natural speech, occlusal function, and esthetics.

Abstract
Background Aim of this study is to compare the clinical and radiographic success of non-surgical endodontic therapy in patients receiving intravenous zolendronate less than 1 year and more than 1 year. Methods The clinical and radiographic follow-up data of 24 patients who were receiving IV zolendronate with 37 teeth were retrieved from the archives to evaluate clinical and radiographic healing at the end of 12 months after non-surgical endodontic therapy. The clinical and radiographic scores of teeth treated with non-surgical endodontic therapy were analyzed. Results The amount of non-healed and incomplete healed teeth in patients receiving zolendronate more than 1 year were more than the amount of teeth of non-healed and incomplete healed in patients receiving bisphosphonates less than 1 year (p < 0.05). Conclusions There was a strong relationship between the duration of the bisphosphonate medication and endodontic success.

Abstract
Proper isolation is an essential prerequisite for successful endodontic treatment. This article aims to provide an update on the prevalence of rubber dam (RD) use, and the role of education along with attitudes of general dental practitioners (GDPs) and patients towards the application of RD in endodontics. Critical ethical issues are also highlighted. Using certain keywords, an electronic search was conducted spanning the period from January 1983 to April 2013 to identify the available related investigations, and the pooled data were then analysed. The results show that although RD is the Standard of Care in endodontic practice, there is a clear discrepancy in what GDPs are taught in dental school and what they practice after graduation. There is little scientific evidence to support the application of RD; however, patient safety and clinical practice guidelines indicate that it is unnecessary and unethical to consider a cohort study to prove what is already universally agreed upon. A few clinical situations may require special management which should be highlighted in the current guidelines. This would pave the way for clear and straightforward universal guidelines.
