osteitis deformans
Paget’s disease
Bone quality in Paget’s disease
poorly mineralized bone => bone distortion and weakening
In Paget’s disease:
Radiographically, the appearance of irregular osteoblastic activity exhibit —————–
In addition, the teeth may demonstrate generalized————— and often, loss of a well-defined lamina dura around the teeth..
a “cotton wool” appearance.
hypercementosis (multiple teeth)
Radiologic Features of Fibrous Dysplasia
- “ground-glass” appearance with poorly defined margins
- mixed radiolucent-radiopaque
Fibrous dysplasia
an abnormal development
characterized by replacement of normal bone by a proliferation of fibrous tissues.
Osteoma
Osteomas are benign tumor of bone
Dysplasia
an abnormal development
Radiologic Features of Osteoma
circumscribed sclerotic masses ( sclerotic = hardening or thickening => radiopaque)without radiolucent rim
circumscribed= limited, have border; not diffuse
Odontoma ( vs Osteoma)
Radiographically, odntoma appears as a ——– mass with the radiodensity of tooth structure, which is also surrounded by a ———- rim
Odontogenic tumors (vs bone tumors)
calcified/ radiopaque
a radiolucent rim
CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC TUMOR
aka ….?
resembles which tumor?
radiolucent defect with ……..
(PINDBORG TUMOR)
resembles an ameloblastoma;
radiolucent defect with or without containing fine calcifcations
Sialoliths vs Tonsiloliths (radio view, quantity)
Sialoloiths: occlusal, single stone
Tonsiloliths: pano, midportion of ramus; multiple stones
Mucositis
thickkeness of sinus mucosa => radiopaque band on the sinus floor, caused by inflammation
