Osteonecrosis of the jaw is associated with defects in vascularization and with the use of oral bisphosphonates. Osseous exposition and infection may occur. Recommended treatment is variable, from antibiotic medication, bony decortication to resections of the mandible in severe cases. Reconstruction of mandible, in cases of resections is essential for maintaining esthetic profile and adequate form and function. Objective: To report a case about the dangers of oral bisphosphonates in association with invasive procedures such as dental implants Case report: Female patient, 64 years-old, with osteonecrosis of the jaw caused by use of oral bisphosphonates after rehabilitation with dental implants. She had an edentulous and atrophic mandible and poor healthy. After diagnosis, partial resection of the jaw was performed together with the reconstruction with titanium plate, with no success. Then, iliac bone graft fixed by plates and screws was attempted, again with no success. Conclusion: Despite of the small number of cases of osteonecrosis associated with oral bisphosphonate reported in the literature, a simple implant surgery could result in adverse consequences if the use of this medication were overlooked in the anamnesis.

Soft tissue ultrasound (ST-USS) has been shown to be of utmost importance in assessing patients with soft tissue infections in the emergency department or critical care unit. It aids in guiding the management of soft tissue infection based on the sonographic findings.

Histological Data

The aim of the present study is to assess the clinical and histological healing of a post-extractive alveolus following the procedure for socket preservation, in a patient receiving oral bisphosphonates for more than 6 years. After the extraction, enzymatically-deantigenated horse bone granules and an equine pericardium membrane were used to preserve the tooth socket. The patient was placed on a monthly follow-up in order to monitor the healing process. A 3 mm trephine bur was used to drill the bone for implant site preparation and to collect the bone sample. No signs and symptoms related to osteonecrosis of the jaws were reported. Histological data showed that, after 5 months, the mean percentages of trabecular bone, bone marrow and residual bone graft were respectively 45.74 ± 0.09%, 48.09 ± 0.08%, and 6.16 ± 0.01%. The residual graft material appeared to be osteointegrated and none of the particles appeared to be encapsulated. The present case report supports the guidelines that assume that patients undergoing oral bisphosphonate therapy can be eligible for surgical therapy. More clinical studies with larger sample sizes are needed to support this clinical evidence.
