We report the successful comprehensive dental rehabilitation of a 6‑year‑old child with juvenile focal osteoporosis receiving IV bisphosphonate therapy. Following interdisciplinary consultation with the primary physician and implementation of antibiotic prophylaxis protocols, the patient underwent multiple dental procedures including extractions, pulp therapy, restorations, and stainless‑steel crown placement. No complications or signs of MRONJ developed during the 12‑month follow‑up period. This case demonstrates that comprehensive dental rehabilitation can be safely performed in pediatric patients receiving IV bisphosphonate therapy when evidence‑based protocols guide clinical decision‑making. Interdisciplinary consultation, antibiotic prophylaxis, and careful monitoring enable successful treatment outcomes while maintaining vigilance for potential complications.  \nKeywords: Bisphosphonate, dental rehabilitation, juvenile focal osteoporosis, medication related osteonecrosis of the jaw, pediatric dentistry   \nIntroduction  \nBisphosphonate  \nimportant in  \ntherapy has become increasingly pediatric medicine for treating  \nvarious bone disorders, particularly juvenile focal osteoporosis and osteogenesis imperfecta.[1,2] Juvenile focal osteoporosis is a rare condition affecting children, characterized by localized bone loss that can affect the long bones, vertebrae, or other skeletal sites, requiring targeted bisphosphonate intervention to prevent further bone deterioration and fractures.[3] While medication‑related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) represents a well‑documented complication in adult populations, the risk profile in children remains significantly different, with no documented cases reported in patients under 24 years of age treated for benign bone conditions.[4,5]  \nRecent systematic reviews indicate MRONJ incidence in pediatric populations is extremely low at 0.25%,  \n\n| Access this article online |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Quick Response Code:\u003Cbr>| Website: [https://journals.lww.com/jpbs](https://journals.lww.com/jpbs) |\n|  | DOI: 10.4103/jpbs.jpbs_1461_25 |\n\ncompared to 1–10% in adult cancer patients receiving IV bisphosphonates.[6] The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) 2022 position paper acknowledges this fundamental difference, stating that “no cases of MRONJ with sufficient evidence have been reported” in children under 24 years treated for benign bone diseases.[7] However, the rarity of pediatric cases has resulted in limited evidence‑based guidelines specifically addressing dental management in this population, with most recommendations extrapolated from adult protocols.[8,9]  \nEmerging evidence reveals additional considerations beyond MRONJ risk, including potential effects on dental development and eruption patterns, particularly  \n\n| Address for correspondence: Dr. Rahaf Abdullah Alolayan, Senior Registrar of Pediatric Dentistry at Private Practice, Unizah, Alqassim, Saudi Arabia.\u003Cbr>E-mail: [rahaf.alolayan@qudent.org](rahaf.alolayan@qudent.org) |\n| --- |\n| This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 License (CC BY-NC-ND), where it is permissible to download and share the work provided it is properly cited.
