Postoperative tissue regeneration can be negatively affected by bisphosphonate administration, especially in patients with oncologic diseases. A serious complication of bisphosphonate therapy is the medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), which can be observed mainly after dental surgery. MRONJ is a progressive destruction of the bone that requires patients to stay in hospital for extended periods of time. For this reason, primary wound closure is particularly important in surgical procedures. In the case of wound dehiscence, there is a very high risk for MRONJ. In recent years, non-invasive physical plasma (NIPP) has become known for improving wound healing on the one hand, but also for its promising efficacy in cancer therapy on the other hand. We report on a 63-year-old patient with a history of multiple myeloma and receiving zoledronate, who developed wound dehiscence after tooth extraction. NIPP treatment resulted in complete epithelialization of the entire wound dehiscence. In conclusion, the use of NIPP in patients receiving antiresorptive drugs seems to support tissue regeneration and thus could be an important tool for the prevention of MRONJ.
