Pediatric CNO of the mandible has characteristic radiographic and pathologic features and is usually found as one of multiple disease foci in CRMO rather than as an isolated lesion.

Many IBCs persist for years despite exploration and curettage. Nonetheless, unresolved lesions did not enlarge or cause harm. A single procedure to confirm the diagnosis is sufficient for management.

Cleft-side MxI2 agenesis in CLP subjects appears to be largely a genetically controlled anomaly associated with cleft development, rather than a collateral environmental consequence of the adjacent cleft defect, since increased hypodontia involving multiple missing teeth observed remote from a cleft clearly has a significant genetic basis.
