* Apex of?
* inflam?
* bone?
* May app as?
* symptoms?
- Apex of non-vital tooth
- Chronic inflammatory process
- Reactive bone deposition
- May be apical radiolucency
- Often asymptomatic
condesing osteitis margins
often ill defined
what could this be?
PA sclerosing osteitis
what is this?

* symptoms? expansion?
* location?
* tooth?
- Unknown etiology
- Usually solitary
- Painless, non-expansile
- Mandible – premolar/molar region
- Vital tooth
osteosclerosis compared to PA sclerosing osteitis
better defined margins and more consistent density in the interior
likely dx?
osteosclerosis, no PDL widening

* Teeth vitality?
- Etiology unknown
- Bulbous-shaped roots
- Intact PDL space, lamina dura
- Teeth are vital
