Drug treatment of osteoporosis rebuild the jaw bone
Doctors said the drug Fortao is produced by Eli Lilly for the treatment of osteoporosis can rebuild the jaw bones that were damaged as a result of so-called bone necrosis and inflammation of the gums, which cause damage to the bones.
The researchers said Saturday that their research, which was announced at the annual meeting of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research in Toronto, suggests that this drug might stimulate growth in the jaw damaged.
The drugs work Fortao to reduce the likelihood of bone fractures in patients with fragility by half by stimulating the growth of new bone. But are rarely prescribed this medicine for more than two years out of fear that leads to a type of bone cancer.
A report of two published in the Journal of New England Medical with severe inflammation around the teeth, which cause damage to the tissue surrounding the teeth have formed over the bones of about 10 times with the use of medication Fortao than those who received drugs camouflage.
Said Dr. Laurie McCauley from the University of Michigan in a telephone interview from the studyWhich included 40 volunteers "There was a significant increase in the bone surrounding the teeth as evidenced by X-rays."
The study included other mentioned in the letter of the same journal, sick and only one 88-year-old began her jaw in the years after removal of corrosion, a condition known as osteonecrosis. Continued pain, which has been experiencing for a year.
After eight weeks of the injected drug Fortao pain disappeared among women and CT scan showed that the cells of the bone re-configure this part of the jaw. "Reuters"
