Study Notes
- MRONJ is a condition associated with certain medications.
- Characteristics include exposure of bone and no history of radiation therapy or metastatic disease.
- The condition is updated in the AAOMS 2014 guidelines.
- Medications associated with MRONJ include those used for osteopenia/osteoporosis and malignancy.
- The duration of medication use is also a factor.
- MRONJ is diagnosed when exposed bone persists for more than 8 weeks.
- MRONJ is a serious condition that can cause pain and infection.
- Treatment may involve antibiotics, surgery, and discontinuation of the medication.
- Prevention measures include good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups.
- Patients should discuss the risks and benefits of medication with their healthcare provider.
- Dentoalveolar surgery increases the risk of developing MRONJ.
- MRONJ is more likely to appear in the mandible than the maxilla.
- Pre-existing dental disease increases the risk of MRONJ.
- MRONJ is more prevalent in the female population.
- Dental examinations are recommended before starting IV BP treatment.
- The 2nd molar roots are closest to the maxillary sinus floor.
- Dental issues can cause maxillary sinusitis.
- Acute maxillary sinusitis can cause pain and facial fullness.
- Chronic maxillary sinusitis can be of dental origin and cause unilateral purulent secretion.
- Treatment for maxillary sinusitis includes antibiotics and removal of etiological factors.
