Abstract

Osteoma is a benign osteogenic lesion manifesting from compact or cancellous bone. These can be classified into three types according to their origin. Slow growing osteomas are benign tumours. The recurrence rate is very rare. A very rare neoplastic lesion in the maxillofacial region like Peripheral osteoma is more frequently found in mandible. This is an unusual case of peripheral osteoma present in the buccal aspect of premolar region of mandible corresponding to apical 2/3^rd of ischolar_main. The radiograph provides sufficient information for diagnosis but CT scan is the choice for planning surgery. Completely removing the tumour surgically is the most preferred treatment.

Abstract

Osteoma is a benign slow growing tumour which commonly occurs in craniofacial bones. These tumoursoccur mainly due to proliferation of cancellous bone. It can be of peripheral, central or extra-skeletal type. In peripheral type which is described in this case report arises from the periosteom and is a very rare occurrence in the mandible. Osteomas are usually asymptomatic and can interfere with the aesthetics if they continue to grow to a larger size. These lesions are mostly discovered during routine clinical or in radiographs. Here we discuss a single large peripheral osteoma which arise from the right lower border of the mandibular body in a 50 yr old woman. This lesion caused a deformity of the facial region. Radiographic examination including IOPA, OPG and lateral oblique revealed a solitary radiopaque bony neoplasm. Incisional biopsy of the lesion confirmed the diagnosis to be an osteoma.

Abstract

Plasma cell gingivitis is a rare, benign inflammatory condition of uncertain etiology. The exact etiology is not known, although, it is considered as a hypersensitivity reaction to a number of allergens. The lesions appear as well demarcation on the gingival with erythema and edema extendsto the muco-gingival junction. Early and accurate diagnosis entails thorough history taking, hematological and histopathologic examination. The condition is treated according to the underlying allergic component; removal of the cause will cure the lesion.

Abstract

Lipomas are comparatively uncommon mesenchymaltumours which are benign and originates from adipose cells. Oral lipoma can occur anywhere in the body but commonly develop intraorally in lip,tongue, palate,buccal mucosa, vestibule, and below the tongue and salivary glands. Their progressive growth cause hindrance with speech and mastication due to the tumour’s dimension. Here in thispublication we discuss a case of lipoma in a 28-year-old female patient underneath the anterior one–third of tongue with no pain but interfering with speech and phonation for 2 years.The patient was completely asymptomatic with a large swelling in floor of the mouth and complained of difficulty in speech and eating.
