Evaluation of Zoledronate for Pain Suppression in Diffuse Sclerosing Osteomyelitis of the Mandible: Protocol for a Prospective, Single-Arm Interventional Study
This study is the first prospective trial to evaluate the effect of administering a single dose of zoledronate on pain suppression in patients with DSO. We believe this study will lead to the conclusion that zoledronate is an effective treatment for DSO.
