Dental extraction protocol with plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) inserted into the postextraction alveolus vs Standard dental extraction protocol without PRGF

MRONJ (incidence proportion) · People with cancer treated with intravenous bisphosphonates undergoing dental extractions (at risk of MRONJ)

It is very uncertain whether dental extraction protocol with plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF)… changes MRONJ (incidence proportion) compared with standard dental extraction protocol without PRGF (very low certainty).

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy plus standard care (surgery, antibiotics, oral rinse) vs Standard care alone (surgery, antibiotics, oral rinse)

Healing of osteonecrosis - improvement ('healed' or 'improved' vs 'unchanged' or 'worse') · People with BRONJ (mean age ~66 years; most treated with bisphosphonates for cancer (multiple myeloma, breast cancer) or osteoporosis)

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy plus standard care (surgery, antibiotics,… showed no clear difference in healing of osteonecrosis - improvement ('healed' or 'improved' vs… compared with standard care alone (surgery, antibiotics, oral rinse); GRADE not reported.
