A Case Report and Review on Mandibular Compact and Cancellous Osteomas Case Report:

Abstract

Osteomas are benign osteogenic tumors that are characterized by the proliferation of either cancellous, compact or a combination of both. Central and peripheral are two types of osteomas. In this article, we report two cases of osteomas that were clinically diagnosed as mandibular tori. The radiographic, computed tomography, three-dimensional computed tomography (3DCT) and histopathological investigations were employed in achieving final diagnosis. Both cases were managed by surgical excision. This article aims to discuss the cases presented with literature review on diagnosis and management.
