Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaws in Patients on Antiresorptive Medication With Dental Implants. A Scoping Review.
Article in Clinical oral implants research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesPatients receiving antiresorptive medication (AR) for osteoporosis or cancer are at risk of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ), especially after surgical procedures. Dental implant (DI) placement in high-dose AR (HDAR) patients is widely discouraged, and thorough counseling is recommended for low-dose AR (LDAR) patients. However, data on the role of AR type, dose, and duration remain limited. This review evaluates MRONJ associated with DIs, focusing on AR type and accumulated dose, and identifies local and systemic risk factors. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis review follows the PCC framework for PRISMA-ScR, comparing patients on AR who developed DI-related MRONJ to those who did not, based on the available clinical evidence. A systematic search was conducted on April 13, 2024, in PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library. Two reviewers independently screened and extracted data; a third reviewer resolved disagreements. Data extraction included demographics, primary disease, AR type, dose, treatment duration, DI location, and MRONJ details.
resultsOf 2201 articles, 28 studies were included involving 76 patients with 215 DI (154 in LDAR, 61 in HDAR). The development of MRONJ was reported in 15 studies involving LDAR and four studies on HDAR.
conclusionsEvidence was insufficient to confirm an association between accumulated AR dose and MRONJ associated with DIs. No specific risk factors were identified, emphasizing the need for standardized reporting on AR type, dosage, treatment duration, and intervals to facilitate comprehensive risk assessment. Until evidence-based guidelines emerge, DI therapy in HDAR or long-term LDAR patients should be limited to specialized centers.
