Bisphosphonate-Induced Osteonecrosis of the Jaws: A Comprehensive Guide to Diagnosis, Prevention, and Management

Bisphosphonate-Induced Osteonecrosis of the Jaws: A Comprehensive Guide to Diagnosis, Prevention, and Management provides an evidence-based and clinically relevant overview of one of the most significant complications associated with bisphosphonate therapy. The book comprehensively covers the epidemiology, pathophysiology, risk factors, clinical features, diagnosis, staging, and contemporary management of BRONJ. Special emphasis is placed on the role of diagnostic imaging, particularly cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), in the early detection, assessment of disease extent, treatment planning, and long-term follow-up. It also highlights preventive dental protocols, patient risk assessment, multidisciplinary care, and both conservative and surgical treatment approaches based on current evidence and international guidelines. Enriched with clinical cases, radiographic illustrations, and practical recommendations, this book serves as an invaluable resource for dental students, clinicians, oral medicine specialists, oral and maxillofacial radiologists, surgeons, and researchers seeking a comprehensive understanding of BRONJ and its effective clinical management.
