Dentist Brain Candy

In this episode, I discuss the pathogenesis of Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) and the staging of ORN and the treatment modalities available including surgery, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, pentoxifylline and tocopherol as well as dental management with these cases.  21 days should pass from the time of the last dental surgery before radiation is started, 14 days at a bare minimum.
