TL;DRAbstract
Condensing osteitis is defined as pathologic growth of maxillomandibular bones characterized by mild clinical symptoms. The bone thickening reflects the impaired bone rearrangement in response to mild infection of dental pulp. This clinical study describes case reports of patients sent to us with radiological findings and clinical examination that failed to lead to definitive diagnosis. On differential diagnosis, all bone tissue tumors were considered. Based on clinical and radiological findings (bone density and trabeculation of the bone) we settled on the diagnosis of osteitis condensans, which allowed us to remain in conservative therapy in terms of observing the patient (Fig. 3, Ref. 26).
