New surgical technique aims to heal jaw bone damage from medications
NCT ID NCT07177378
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a surgical approach for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), a condition where jaw bone dies after certain drugs. Surgeons use a special ultrasonic device (piezosurgery) to remove dead bone, then close the area with a double-layer flap. Twenty patients are being treated, and researchers will measure pain and wound healing over time.
