“…Previous studies suggested that a number of risk factors may have an ‘additive’ impact on ONJ pathogenesis, therefore leading to shorter TTO (Bamias et al , ; Mavrokokki et al , ; Pozzi et al , ; Boonyapakorn et al , ; Palaska et al , ; Vahtsevanos et al , ; Saia et al , ; Hasegawa et al , ; Thumbigere‐Math et al , ; Fleisher et al , ; Watters et al , ). These factors included corticosteroid use, smoking, alcohol, T2DM, dental extraction and use of dentures (Bamias et al , ; Mavrokokki et al , ; Pozzi et al , ; Boonyapakorn et al , ; Palaska et al , ; Vahtsevanos et al , ; Saia et al , ; Hasegawa et al , ; Watters et al , ). Our study considered up to seven risk factors in a multivariable regression model (Harrell et al , ) and shows that none of the previously suggested variables is associated with shorter TTO, including dental risk factors (alveolar surgery and use of dentures).…”
