Study Notes

Periapical Cemantal Dysplasia

A non-neoplastic developmental condition affecting cementum.
Primarily affects the mandibular incisor region, often involving multiple teeth.
Impacted teeth remain clinically vital.
Predominantly affects females aged 40-50.

Radiographic Features

Early Lesion (Osteolytic Stage): Radiolucent (dark) area poorly defined, near tooth apices.
Later Lesion (Cementoblastic Stage): Radiopaque (light) masses appear on X-ray.
Mature Stage: Distinct radiopacity, surrounded by a radiolucent band, indicates extensive calcification.

Histological Characteristics

Combination of rounded cement-like structures ("cementicles") and woven bone.
