• Resumen

  • Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia is a non-neoplastic fibro-osseous lesion which often has an asymptomatic slow growth. Unfortunately, these lesions are usually diagnosed through routine radiographic examination. The aim of this study was to describe the main clinical, radiological and histological characteristics of two case reports diagnosed with florid cemento-osseous dysplasia.

    Two cases of florid cemento-osseous dysplasia with different clinical and radiological features were presented. Panoramic radiographs showed multiple radiopacities compatible with fibro-osseous lesions in distinct areas of the maxillary bones. The histological study revealed a sclerotic mass which continued imperceptibly with root cement with scarce fibrous lax tissue.

    The replacement of healthy bone by metaplastic bone and fibrous tissue is the main histological feature. Therapeutic abstention with active clinical and radiographic control visits is recommended in asymptomatic cases.
