The purpose of this present study was to evaluate the efficiency of the growth factors delivered by concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the healing process of osteoporotic patients with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ). This randomized controlled study composed of osteoporotic female patients who were treated with oral bisphosphonates (BPs) and diagnosed with MRONJ. For the CGF group, each patient was treated with local application of CGF at the surgical site after removing the necrotic bone while the surgical area was only primarily closed as traditional surgical therapy for the control group. The patients underwent clinical examinations for 6 months postoperatively to check the presence of infection and dehiscence.
