Despite numerous investigations , the pathophysiology of medication - related osteonecrosis of the jaw ( MRONJ ) remains elusive . These lesions were first reported in 2003 and were associated with the use of bisphosphonates . However , more drugs exhibiting osteonecrotic effects have emerged and included anti - resorptives , anti angiogenics and some immune - modulators . Recently , Tocilizumab , a monoclonal antibody therapy , has gained attention for its experimental use in COVID - 19 treatment . As more patients receive these drugs , clinicians should be wary of their potential risk for MRONJ development and employ necessary preventive measures . This lecture provides a quick review of the emerging medications recently reported to be associated with MRONJ development.
