quote that was not included in all articles

Hi,

When this study was reported (USC and oral bisphosphonates), not all the articles included what was to me the most important statement to communicate to dentists and patients:


"As a school now, we don't have complications any more, we only have referrals," Sedghizadeh said. "We put patients on anti-microbial, anti-fungal rinse one week pre-operatively or post-operatively. If they have been on bisphosphonates six months or a year or longer, then we have a prevention protocol which has been very, very effective."



It sound like these are pretty simple precautions to take, and pretty effective ones, too.


The source of this quote was USNews and World report website but it was written up many places - I'm sure you could google and get more information. URL of the article from which the above quote came:
