Produktbeschreibung
Osteonecrosis of the jaws is a well-known side-effect of antiresorptive therapy that predominantly occurs in patients suffering from malignant diseases and receiving intravenous administrations of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates or subcutaneous administrations of denosumab, a monoclonal antibody. Less frequently it may also be observed in patients with osteoporosis who are being treated with these antiresorptive drugs

This textbook provides detailed, up-to-date information on all aspects of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws, including clinical features, pathogenesis, treatment options, and preventive measures. It also explains safe prevention and treatment strategies for patients receiving antiresorptive drugs who require extractions, implant insertions, and other dento-alveolar surgeries. This book will be of major interest for medical and dental students, dentists, and oral and maxillofacial surgeons as well as osteologists and oncologists.

Rezensionen
"... eine ideale Grundlage für jeden Zahnarzt und Oralchirurgen, um sich über das Krankheitsbild der Kiefernekrose unter antiresorptiven Medikamenten wie Bisphosphonaten und Denosumab zu informieren und sein Wissen bezüglich der zahnärztlichen Behandlung dieser Patienten zu erweitern. ... übersichtlich strukturierte und sehr gut illustrierte Kapitel ... in englischer Sprache erschienen, jedoch auch für Nicht-Muttersprachler sehr verständlich ... Insgesamt kann dieses Buch zahnärztlichen, oralchirurgischen und mund-, kiefer- und gesichtschirurgischen Kollegen nur empfohlen werden." (Dr. Kleopatra Ziata, in: Bayerisches Zahnärzteblatt BZB, März 2015)
