Introduction: Drug-associated Maxillary Osteonecrosis is one of the most relevant adverse effects in treatment with antiresorptive drugs such as bisphosphonates and denosumab. Oncological conditions such as multiple myeloma, breast cancer, prostate, and bone-metabolic disorders such as osteoporosis lead the indications for these antiresorptive therapies. Treatment is complex because the disease is often refractory. Pharmacological, conservative and surgical treatments are described. Objective: The aim of this study is to report two clinical cases of MRONJ treated with two different therapeutic protocols and the analysis of the available literature on these aspects based on the clinical classification defined by the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS). Conclusion: Patients who develop clinical signs of great morbidity associated with MRONJ, may see their quality of life conditioned and suffer a worsening of their underlying pathology. MRONJ treatment is conditioned by the stage of the disease, its success depends on interdisciplinary management and strict medical and dental clinical follow-up, as well as rigorous monitoring to prevent or detect future recurrences early.
