1/9/17 Flashcards
2 most important aspects necessary for dx:
cx hx, HNE
How to describe localization of abnormality:
localized/ generalized, position in jaw, single or multiofocal, size
one of the most common to see in cliniic, man or max, any quadrant, any part of jaw, generalized
Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia
bone or periosteum, typically better px?
periphery, not as aggressive
Origin of lesion above inferior alveolar nerve canal:
odontogenic
Origin of lesion below inferior alveolar nerve canal (IANC):
unlikely odontogenic
Central axis;
central, eccentric, within cortex, periosteal, parosteal
one of the most common lesions we will see
below canal:
staphne defect, lingual man salivary depression
Most lesions above the IANC besides PA lesions:
dentigerous cyts
Nodule protruding from man in occlusal rg:
peripheral osteoma
Give an example of a peripheral lesion:
peripheral osteoma
Give an example of a centrall lesion:
compound odontoma
To describe the circular ring around dentigerous cyst:
pericoronal
1st thing to do if there is a PA RL:
pulp test
Most common cyst in oral cavity:
Periapical cyst
Multiple periapical RGL, suspect this:
periapical cemento-osseous dysplasia
periapical cemento-osseous dysplasia:
multiple teeth affected, common, especially in A-A females, RGL in periapical area - do pulp test, tooth is vital in PCOP, don’t treat, just follow patient
Mesure cysts in mm or cm?
cm
2nd most common odontogenic tumor in oral cavity, above canal, large
ameloblastoma
Staphne defect affects this gland:
lingual mandibular salivary gland
