“…This is usually seen in malignant bone tumors such as osteosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma, fibrosarcoma, juxtacortical chondrosarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, metastatic tumors, and in some other rapidly growing lesions such as aneurysmal bone cyst, giant cell tumor, or in reactive processes (osteomyelitis and subperiosteal hematoma). 10 11 30 31 32 To the best of our knowledge, periosteal reaction accompanying COF has not been previously reported. In the present case, the young age of the patient and rapid tumor growth led to a periosteal reaction.…”

Central odontogenic fibroma (COF) is a rare benign tumor that accounts for 0.1% of all odontogenic tumors. A case of COF (simple type) of the mandible in a four-year-old boy is described in this report. The patient showed asymptomatic swelling in the right inferior border of the lower jaw for one week. A panoramic radiograph showed a poorly-defined destructive unilocular radiolucent area. Cone-beam computed tomography showed expansion and perforation of the adjacent cortical bone plates. A periosteal reaction with the Codman triangle pattern was clearly visible in the buccal cortex. Since the tumor had destroyed a considerable amount of bone, surgical resection was performed. No recurrence was noted.

“…Infectious origin swellings such as periapical abscesses or cysts may involve a tender regional carious or non-vital tooth and will show signs of inflammation. Radiolucent areas will also be observed in approximation with the apex of the involved teeth, and the swelling will be soft, fluctuant, and painful 4 . Proliferative periostitis due to chronic odontogenic infection beneath the periosteum presents as convex swelling with normal overlying mucosa; it is seen in younger individuals with the inferior border of the mandible below the first molar being the most prevalent site.…”

“…Hamartomatous swellings, like osteomas, are slow growing, bony hard peripheral swellings that appear as dense radio opaque masses on radiographs 4 . Haemangiomas frequently appear as bluish, soft, non-fluctuant, bosselated, domed, nodular swellings on the palate and buccal mucosa 8 .…”

Ossifying fibromas are benign fibro-osseous tumors of mesenchymal origin. Although ossifying fibromas have principally been found in the jaw, they have also been reported in the frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid, and temporal bones, as well as the orbit and anterior cranial fossa. Ossifying fibromas affecting the jaw exhibit variable behaviors ranging from slow growth to occasionally aggressive local destruction. In the present article, we discuss a differential diagnosis considered for maxillary swellings and report a rare case of ossifying fibroma occurring in the maxilla.

“…When multiple teeth are affected the radiolucencies involving the roots shows a dome like projections that scallops between the roots (32) and often scallops between the roots of the teeth, almost always diagnostic. (33) The scalloped outline, however, is often found in edentulous areas also. (7) Furthermore, scalloped margin is a sign of possible recurrence, although this should not be confused with the interdental scalloping associated with an intact lamina dura.…”

The traumatic bone (TBC) cyst is an uncommon benign empty or fluid containing cavity within bone that is not lined by epithelium. The etiopathogenesis of TBC is still unknown. TBC is frequently encountered in young patients during the second and third decades of life. Sex predilection is equal but some studies in literature suggest clear female predominance. Body of the mandible between the canine and the third molar is the most common site (75%) in head and neck region followed by mandibular symphysis. The cysts are usually asymptomatic. Associated teeth are usually vital with no resorption or displacement. It expands the cortices and, seldom, intraoral or extra oral swelling may be seen. Most of the TBCs are diagnosed incidentally in orthopantomogram (OPG). On radiographic examination, a unilocular irregular but well defined lytic lesion is seen characteristically extending between the roots of the teeth. TBC is representing approximately 1% of all jaw cysts. A final diagnosis of a TBC is almost invariably made at the time of surgery, where in identification of an empty air-filled cavity serves as a valuable diagnostic tool. Surgical exploration was proved not only essential in making the right diagnosis but also curative from a treatment plan perspective. Recurrence of TBC is assumed to be extremely rare. However, a distinct proportion of recurrences may occur.
