description | Objectives: This systematic review aims to investigate the impact of tumor necrotic factor alpha inhibitors in suppressing bone resorption in periodontitis, and its potential to cause osteonecrosis. Extensive electronic research was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines, which connected various aspects of anti-TNF-a (anti-tumor necrosis factor-a) to periodontitis and osteonecrosis patients. Background: TNF-a inhibitors are broadly indicated in the treatment of autoimmune patients with possible joint resorption and increased inflammatory processes such as rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, where they reduce bone loss and certain mediators. As rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis share many characteristics, these medications may also be helpful in the treatment of coexisting periodontitis. However, besides medical benefits, anti-TNF-a also exhibits several adverse effects, ranging from dizziness to tuberculosis. Osteonecrosis is considered a recent adverse impact. Methods: An extensive electronic systematic review following the PRISMA guidelines was performed for English-language papers using the following databases as sources of information: PubMed, Medline, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Library Genesis, Worldwide Science, National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society (NRAS), and other related articles. This systematic review is registered on the PROSPERO platform under registration number CRD42022341753. Results: Twenty articles were identified after the exclusion criteria were applied. These include systematic reviews, case reports, retrospective cohort studies, case report series, meta-analyses, clinical trials, randomised clinical trials, cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses, longitudinal observational studies, and prospective clinical trials. All these were included in the quantitative and qualitative analyses. Conclusions: Anti-TNF-a drugs show promising results in treating patients with rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis but could be considered a risk factor for osteonecrosis. Hence, patients receiving such medications should be closely monitored by the dentist and physician before, during, and after administration. |
