Radiographic Descriptions
This condition appears as excessive cementum deposition, causing a thickened or enlarged root with a rounded, bulbous appearance near the apex.
What is Hypercementosis?
Unlike many other periapical radiopacities, this condition is typically associated with a non-vital tooth.
What is Condensing Osteitis?
Differential diagnosis for a fibroma.
What is a pyogenic granuloma, peripheral ossifying fibroma, peripheral giant cell granuloma, and mucocele?
This is the treatment of Condensing Osteitis (Focal Sclerosing Osteomyelitis)
What is root canal therapy or extraction of the affected tooth?
This fluid-filled lesion commonly develops on the lower labial mucosa.
What is a mucocele?
This radiolucent lesion is typically associated with the crown of an unerupted tooth, most commonly an impacted third molar.
What is a Dentigerous Cyst?
This condition presents as a lacelike appearance also known as striae of wickham.

Differential diagnosis for hypercementosis
True cementoblastoma,condensing osteitis , periapical cemento osseous dysplasia
This is the treatment for internal root resorption.
What is endo(RCT)?
This mucocele-like lesion presents as a unilateral swelling on the floor of the mouth.
What is a ranula?
This lesion is not a true cyst and appears as a well-defined radiolucency located in the posterior mandible, inferior to the mandibular canal.
What is a Static (Stafne) Bone Cyst?
This condition is often described as having "chubby roots" due to excessive cementum deposition.
What is Hypercementosis?
Differential diagnosis for a gingival cyst
What is peripheral granuloma, pyogenic granuloma, lateral periodontal cyst?
This medication is commonly prescribed to treat Angular Cheilitis caused by a fungal infection.
What is a Topical Antifungal Ointment?
This condition presents as diffuse erythema with a smooth appearance beneath a denture and is caused by a fungal infection.
What is Chronic Atrophic Candidiasis (Denture Stomatitis)?
This lesion appears as a well-defined unilocular or multilocular radiolucency that often scallops between the roots of teeth.
What is a Simple Bone Cyst?
This lesion commonly develops following trauma to a minor salivary gland duct.
What is a Mucocele?
Differential diagnosis for condensing Osteitis (FocalSclerosing Osteomyelitis)?
What are Idiopathic Osteosclerosis, Periapical Cemento-Osseous Dysplasia, Cementoblastoma,?
These medications are commonly used to reduce pain and inflammation associated with Minor Aphthous Ulcers.
What are Topical Corticosteroids (Steroids)?
This condition appears with concentric erythematous patterns of cutaneous lesions on the fingers that resembles a target or bull’s-eye
What is erythema multiforme?
This condition presents as a localized area of increased bone density, usually found at the apex of a tooth root.
What is Condensing Osteitis (Focal Sclerosing Osteomyelitis)?
This benign gray-white opalescent lesion is commonly found on the buccal mucosa and disappears when the tissue is stretched.
What is Leukoedema?
Differential diagnosis for a dentigerous cyst.
OKC, Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor, Ameloblastoma
This is the treatment for erythema multiforme.
What is identify and remove causative agent and topical/systemic corticosteroids depending on severity of disease?
This lesion appears as a small, painless, sessile gingival nodule most commonly found on the facial gingiva of the mandibular canine-premolar region.
