“…Radiographic evaluations were carried out at six months, and then every year by an orthopantomography, a TC and clinical evaluation. The patients were always examined for possible clinical signs of BRONJ: pain, swelling, non-healing, exposed necrotic bone and/or fistulas with connection to the bone [22].…”
