COVID-19 affects not only the respiratory system, but also bones and connective tissues. In recent years, as a
result of this infection, cases of osteonecrosis and osteomyelitis of the jaw bones have been increasing. The purpose of
the study is to identify COVID-19-associated jaw bone injuries and assess the effectiveness of their complex treatment.
The study was conducted in 2023-2025 with the participation of 36 patients with pathological changes in the jaw bones
after COVID-19. Clinical and instrumental studies were used for diagnosis. Antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, PRP
therapy, physiotherapy, and surgical debridement methods were used in the treatment. As a result of complex treatment,
pain syndrome decreased in 87% of patients, the inflammatory process stopped, and bone regeneration accelerated.
The recovery process in patients treated with PRP was 1.5-2 times faster. The results showed the high effectiveness of
a comprehensive approach in jaw bone diseases associated with COVID-19 complications. Regenerative methods and
physiotherapy significantly improved bone regeneration
