Benign cementoblastoma. A review and five new cases

M Ulmansky et al. Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol. 1994 Jan.

Abstract

This article includes five new cases of benign cementoblastoma. The study includes a review on 66 previously published cases that we consider to be bonafide cases. It is considered that benign cementoblastoma continues to be an infrequent entity that particularly affects young patients under the age of 30. The sex distribution shows a slight tendency for being more common in females. The most frequently effected area is the mandibular molar-premolar region. Pain, expansion and, radiographic radiopacity surrounded by a peripheral radiolucent halo are the most striking features. Treatment and prognosis are also discussed. Histopathologic conditions and factors to be considered with respect to differential diagnosis conclude the report.
