Best Treatment Choice for Osteonecrosis of the Jaw

Summary

BETCON is a pragmatic randomized controlled open-label multi-center study in patients with newly diagnosed stage I-II MRONJ designed to answer the question whether minimally invasive management with LPRF membranes or primary surgical treatment is better than the standard of care of conservative therapy alone. The primary end-point is the time to mucosal healing. Secondary end-points consist of supporting measures of efficacy, patient reported symptoms, quality of life, well-being, and functioning.
