  • Title: Ozone therapy in extractive surgery on patients treated with bisphosphonates.
    Author: Agrillo A, Sassano P, Rinna C, Priore P, Iannetti G.
    Journal: J Craniofac Surg; 2007 Sep; 18(5):1068-70. PubMed ID: 17912084.
    Abstract:
    It is certain that oral extractive surgery is a remarkable trigger to avascular osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients treated with pyrophosphate analogous. This acquisition limits the use of endo-oral surgery in those patients, even when they have already developed the lesions. In this study, we present the results obtained in a group of 15 patients deriving from a 33-patient cluster with osteonecrosis of the jaw in treatment at our department with a new protocol based on ozone therapy. The object of this article is to demonstrate how dental extraction becomes possible in a patient with avascular bisphosphonate-related jaw osteonecrosis or in those who simply received pyrophosphate analogous when proper treatment with ozone therapy has been done.
