In patients with osteoporosis, the factors such as intravenously administered drugs, fistulas that were probed to the bone, and surgical management with curettage were associated with a lower rate of postoperative complete healing of MRONJ, whereas primary closure of wounds led, possibly, to good healing outcomes. The strengths of the study include its relatively large sample size and that its results can hopefully aid in the clinical decisions for practitioners and future research studies for researchers.
