ABSTRACT
Aim:
The aim of this study is to replicate both clinical and histological presentation of bisphosphonate inducedosteonecrosis of the jaws (BONJ) in an animal model of the disease state. Successful recapitulation of a BONJlikeindication in an animal model will be useful for studying pathogenesis, as well as prevention and treatment strategies for BONJ.Materials andMethods:
Eighty (80) rats were prospectively and randomly divided into two groups; control group(40)and study group(40). All animals in study group, injected with a dose of 1 mg/kg dexamethasone (DX) subcutaneouslyon day 7, 14, or 21; and 1, 2, or 3 doses of 7.5 ìg/kg zoledronic acid (ZA) subcutaneously administered to coincide with the last day of DX. Half of the animals from each group under went extraction of the left mandibular molars and the remaining animals under went extraction of the left maxillary molars under pentobarbital-induced general anesthesia. All animals were euthanized twenty-eight (28) days following tooth extractions.Results:
The amount of new bone trabecules as significantly decreased in bisphosphonate-dexamethasone (BPDX)treated sockets. Difference between both groups was found statistically significant (p=0,0001). Theres noforeign body reaction in sockets of both groups and no significance difference observed for fibrosis (p=0,306).The necrosis scores were significantly higher in BP-DX treated sockets (p=0,015). The inflamation scores were significantly higher for study group (p=0,0001).Conclusion:
This study provides preliminary observations for the development of an animal model of BONJ. But we think that there is need for other studies have only BP treated group and larger study population (AU)
