Abstract
Bisphosphonates are effective drugs used to treat important medical conditions affecting the skeleton, such as malignancy and osteoporosis. Bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw (BONJ) is a rare but painful condition that can affect quality of life. Healthcare professionals need to be aware of this potential side-effect of bisphosphonates, as well as ways to minimize its occurrence.Entities:
