Lack of cooperation between physicians and dentists during osteoporosis treatment may increase fractures and osteonecrosis of the jaw.
CONCLUSIONS: This study reconfirms the results of our previous survey. Discontinuation of antiresorptive treatment may increase both fractures and ONJ.

Study limitations were selection bias due to low response rate and possible inaccurate responses to the questionnaire.
