Optimization of Peri-Implant Bone Repair in Estrogen-Deficient Rats on a Cafeteria Diet: The Combined Effects of Systemic Risedronate and Genistein-Functionalized Implants.

Estrogen deficiency, coupled with a cafeteria diet (CD), can impair peri-implant bone repair, posing a significant challenge to implant success in affected individuals. Thus, it is crucial to explore strategies for implant functionalization and systemic treatments that could alleviate these bone alterations. This study aimed to assess peri-implant bone repair in ovariectomized (OVX) rats subjected to a CD, with a focus on implants functionalized with genistein (GEN), compared to conventional implants (CONV), and the effects of systemic treatment with risedronate sodium (RIS).
