Influence of Preventive Tooth Extractions on Quality of Life in Patients with Antiresorptive Intake—A Prospective Longitudinal Study
Background: To find out whether preventive tooth extractions in patients on antiresorptive therapy have a direct impact on the patients’ overall quality of life (QoL); Methods: QoL using the five-level version of the EuroQol Group’s EQ-5D instrument (EQ-5D-5L) was longitudinally assessed in N = 114...

Patients were stratified as high-risk (malignant disease with bone metastasis or multiple myeloma, with monthly high-dose antiresorptive therapy delivered intravenously [bisphosphonate] or subcutaneously [denosumab]) and low-risk/osteoporosis patients (weekly low-dose antiresorptive therapy administered orally [bisphosphonate] or half-yearly subcutaneously [denosumab]).
