MRONJ


Understanding and managing Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (MRONJ) is an essential component of contemporary dental care, especially relevant with increasing numbers of patients undergoing anti-resorptive or anti-angiogenic drug therapy.

MRONJ, a serious condition characterised by bone necrosis in the jaw, poses significant challenges in dental treatment and patient management.

This course is carefully designed to provide dental professionals with an in-depth understanding of MRONJ, focusing on the pathophysiology, risk factors, and clinical presentations of this complex condition.

We emphasise the importance of accurate risk assessment and developing individualised treatment plans, which are essential for the effective management of patients at risk of or suffering from MRONJ.

You will gain insights into the latest best practices and guidelines, equipping you with the necessary tools and knowledge to navigate the challenges posed by MRONJ.

This comprehensive course aims to enhance your clinical skills, improve patient outcomes, and strengthen your role as a essential part of the healthcare team in managing patients affected by MRONJ.

If you're not yet a member of Dentaljuce, we highly recommend you to join and gain access to our comprehensive course on MRONJ.

This course, along with over 100 other CPD courses, is available for a single membership payment.
