Round/Oval
T or F: When Benign tumors grow they will displace structures and resorb bone but the most important feature is there ability to lay down new bone along the outer cortex to maintain the integrity of the bone.
True
Since benign tumors are usually encapsulated in CT there is generally a ___ band around the lesion
Radiolucent

What is another name for exostosis.
Idiopathic Osteosclerosis
Benign tumors are tumors from the _____.
Odontogenic Apparatus
Benign Tumors are classified into 3 groups. Name them
Tumors of Odontogenic Epithelium

Tumors of Ectomesenchyme

Mixed tumors (ectomesenchyme and epithelialium)
Most commonly significant odontogenic tumor
Ameloblastoma
Ameloblastoma Characteristics:

-Originates in the ____.
-More common in what gender?
-More common in what ages?
-Growth is fast/slow?
-Bone becomes____.
-Race?
Originates from the remnants of the Dental Lamina

Gender: Men

Age: 20-50 yrs

Growth: Slow

Bone becomes THIN!!!

Race= Blacks
Ameloblastoma Radiographically:

-What region generally?

-Periphery?

-Mutli or Unilocular?

-Root Resorption?

-Expansion and Displacement: YES
Ameloblastomma Radiographically:

Region: Molar/Ramus Region

Periphery: Well Defined, Corticated

Multi AND Unilocular

Root Resorption: YES
-more so than other tumors

Expansion and Displacement: YES
Ameloblastomas with multi-locuals have been said to look like a ____for small locules and ___ for large locules.
Honeycomb= small locules

Soap Bubbles= large locules
What is the differential dx of an Ameloblastoma?

If in a young pt and there is a radiolucency surrounding the crown of an unerupted tooth. The best differential dx would be a ____.

A monolocular tumor that has involved the roots of a functioning tooth may resemble a ____.

How do you rule out a residual cyst from an ameloblastoma:

How do you rule out a lateral periodontal cyst from an ameloblastoma

How do you differentiate between a Giant Cell Granuloma and an Ameloblastoma

Differentiate between an odontogenic myoxoma and an ameloblastoma
Young pt w/ radiolucency around the crown of unerupted tooth: Dentigerous Cyst

Monolocular tumor w/ involved roots: Radicular Cyst

Rule out a Residual cyst by the age of the pt. Ameloblastomas occur in older pts

Rule of Lateral PD cyst from ameloblastoma by:
-Age (Lat PD cyst occurs in younger pts)
-Region (L PD cyst occur in the incisor, canine, premolar area)

GCG are usually anterior to the molars, MORE Granular and ill defined

Odontogenic Myxoma are RARE and the septa is thinner than in a ameloblastomma
Adematoid Odontogenic Tumor
Characteristics:

-Gender?

-Age

-Slow or fast growing
Gender: Female

Age= 5-50 year old

Slow growing
Radiographic Features of Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor:

CEOT
Calcifying Epithelial Odontogenic Tumor

AKA: Pindborg Tumor
CEOT's characteristics:

It can interfere with the eruption of the perm teeth

It is divided into compound and complex

Actual classification is a _____ of dental tissues.
