Osteonecrosis maxilar y bisfosfonatos: presentación de tres nuevos casos
2006
Los bisfosfonatos están adquiriendo una relevancia terapéutica cada vez mayor, dada su utilidad en el manejo de diversas patologías. Con el incremento de su uso, se están documentando casos de necrosis ósea mandibular, y en menor medida maxilar, de difícil solución y con una importante afectación de la calidad de vida de los pacientes en tratamiento con estos fármacos. El factor que con mayor frecuencia desencadena el proceso es la actuación de los profesionales: odontólogos, estomatólogos y cirujanos orales y maxilofaciales. La previsión, las intervenciones atraumáticas y el tratamiento conservador, parecen ser los medios más adecuados para minimizar la incidencia o resolver las complicaci…
Experimental evidence of pharmacological management of anchorage in Orthodontics: A systematic review
2015
Introduction: Orthodontic anchorage is one of the most challenging aspects of Orthodontics. Preventing undesired movement of teeth could result in safer and less complicated orthodontic treatment. Recently, several reviews have been published about the effects of different molecules on bone physiology and the clinical side effects in Orthodontics. However, the effects of local application of these substances on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement have not been assessed.Objectives: The aim of this research was to analyze the scientific evidence published in the literature about the effects of different molecules on orthodontic anchorage.Methods: The literature was systematically reviewed …
Estudio clínico, radiográfico y plasmático de la osteonecrosis de los maxilares por bisfosfonatos en un grupo de183 pacientes
2016
Osteonecrosis of the jaw is a particular form of chronic osteomyelitis caused by bisphosphonates (BF) or by other pharmacological or anti-angiogenic drugs. The BF are potent drugs inhibitors of osteoclasts by exerting a strong interaction with these cells, producing a sharp decrease of bone resorption. Objectives: To analyse clinical and radiologic characteristics as well as differences in the plasma levels of the Activation Nuclear Kappa receptor ligand (RANKL) and of osteoprotegerin (OPG) in a group of patients with osteonecrosis and compared to healthy controls. In addition, within the Group of patients with osteonecrosis maxillary study if there is relationship between plasma levels of …
