Abstract :
Although bisphosphonates have been proven to cause osteonecrosis, most oncological patients’ medications are not limited to bisphosphonates. Dentists should be aware of the other drugs that these patients might use and their potential to raise the risk of osteonecrosis. The aim this paper is to emphasize the possible complications that oncologic drugs can cause during dental procedures.
