Sažetak

Objective: Bisphosphonate induced osteonecrosis of the jaw (BIONJ) is often seen in oncologic patients with bone metastasis, who are treated with intravenous bisphosphonates as a result of elective dental treatment. Clinical course: We present a case report of a 68-year-old patient with BIONJ in the right maxillary premolar region after a tooth extraction. The patient had breast cancer, bone metastasis, and received intravenous bisphosphonate therapy and anti-mitotic chemotherapy. Conservative therapy for stages 1 and 2 of BIONJ was indicated with mouth washes, antibiotics and, in addition, local Aquacel Ag wound dressing and HealOzone therapy. After 6 months of drug absence (bisphosphonates), the surgical procedure was performed and the patient obtained a removable prosthetic appliance. Discussion and conclusion: Conservative treatment in addition with Aquacel Ag and HealOzone reduced pain and infection in the waiting period, but the wound did not heal. The surgical procedure after the drug treatment was an efficient solution. Prevention is the best treatment of BIONJ.
