“…In the present study, the biggest IO measured 1.8cm and, similar to previous research, the lesions were found in different areas: near the root apices, between teeth, away from or adjacent to the teeth (6). Higher incidence of IO in the mandibular molar and premolar region was found in this study, as previously described (2,9,10,12,13,15,18,20).…”

“…Studies showed that the prevalence of IO varied from the lowest 1.96% among Greeks (12) to the highest 31% in a Chinese/Indo-Chinese population (14). The present study found an incidence of 5.6% in a Brazilian sample, with a male-female ratio of 3:2 that did not prove significant.…”

“…Other differential diagnoses of IO are root segments, exostosis, hypercementosis, foreign bodies, fibro-osseous lesions, odontomas, cementoblastomas, and even impacted teeth should be taken into consideration (6,(10)(11)(12)(13). In this study, one case of IO in an edentulous area resembled root segment ( Figure 3A), accurately diagnosed as IO through periapical radiographs.…”

“…This finding agrees with Geist and Katz (5) and McDonnell (13), who found a female to male ratio of 1.5:1 and 2:1, respectively. Similarly, Avramidou et al (14) detected that female patients were more likely to have a radiopaque lesion than men. However, Kawai et al (9) and Yonetsu et al (4) found no difference between the incidence in women and men.…”

“…In radiographic feature, this lesion appears as a local homogeneous radiodensity in root apex area of the teeth with PDL widening. This lesion does not have radiolucent margin (14,19). The histopathologic features show sclerosis and remodeling of bone.…”

Context:The essential role of a general dental practitioner is recognizing the nature of the oral cavity lesions. Periapical lesions, which are observed in radiographs of patients, may have odontogenic or nonodontogenic origins. This review aimed to study differential diagnosis of common and important periapical lesions. Evidence Acquisition: English-language literature were searched by manual and electronic search with the terms "periapical lesions", "jaw neoplasms", and "non-odontogenic lesions" in three data bases of MEDLINE, Google scholar, and SCOPUS among published studies since 2000 to 2013. All review articles, original articles, case reports, and case series were evaluated. Results: In this study, it has been showed that many periapical lesions have not endodontic origin and not healing by root canal therapy. Conclusions:The authors recommended to have paraclinical tests, especially vitality tests, in addition to clinical and radiographic examinations to avoid endodontic mistreatment. In suspicious cases, biopsy of lesions, referral to pathologist, and long-term fallow-up is required.
