Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw have been widely described. Denosumab has recently been associated to ONJ. Guidance to clinicians is based on criteria established by the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS). Treatment should be multidisciplinary. Two options are available and have to be discussed on the basis of associated therapeutic, patient's general state of health and possibility of therapeutic window during cancer treatment: conservative (medication and conservative surgery like superficial debridement) and extensive surgery. Therefore, we report an update about management strategies of osteonecrosis of the jaw and two cases of patients with a stage 2 osteonecrosis of the jaw only treated with mouth rinses, antibiotics and debridement and complete healing.
