The relationship between osteoporosis and residual ridge reduction has been investigated in many studies. As a result it can be concluded that it is not easy to measure the extent of osteoporosis of the jaws. Several studies have shown that individuals with general signs of osteoporosis do not necessary have an osteoporotic mandible or maxilla. The same applies to the relationship between osteoporosis and residual ridge reduction in edentulous patients and osteoporosis and bone loss in patients with periodontal diseases. Taken into account the positive effect of healthy food intake and functional loading in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, it can be expected that they also influence the bone quality of the jaws. Preservation of strategic teeth or roots under the overdenture as well as the insertion of implants have a positive effect on the bone of the jaws.

Psychological stress has been associated with the onset of several diseases, including osteoporosis. However, the underlying pathogenic mechanism remains unknown, and effective therapeutic strategies are still unavailable. Growing evidence suggests that the sympathetic nervous system regulates bone homeostasis and vascular function under psychological stress, as well as the coupling of osteogenesis and angiogenesis in bone development, remodeling, and regeneration.

Background: Adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) transplantation presents a promising approach for osteoporosis (OP) treatment. However, the therapeutic efficacy of ADSCs is hindered by low post-transplantation survival rates and limited capacities for adhesion, migration, and differentiation. Icariin (ICA), the primary active compound of Epimedium, has been shown to promote cell proliferation and induce osteogenic differentiation; however, its specific effects on ADSC osteogenesis and the mechanisms by which ICA enhances osteoporosis treatment through cell transplantation remain inadequately understood.
