Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a rare, benign, and slowly growing neoplasm of the jaw composed of proliferating odontogenic epithelium in ectomesenchymal tissue along with dental hard tissue formation. Herein, we describe a case of an ameloblastic fibro-odontoma in 12-year-old female with paresthesia of the chin and lower lip. Panoramic radiography showed a radio-opacity in the right posterior mandible near the mandibular canal and associated with the right mandibular third molar. Histologically, the lesion contained epithelial and mesenchymal odontogenic components in close proximity to odontoma-like elements. Enucleation and curettage of the affected site in the mandible resulted in resolution of the paresthesia postoperatively.

The Relationship

ABSTRACT Objectives Exact location of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) bundle is very important. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal by cone-beam computed tomography. Study design This was a cross-sectional study with convenience sampling. 94 mandibular CBCTs performed with CSANEX 3D machine (Soredex, Finland) and 3D system chosen. Vertical and horizontal relationship between the mandibular canal and the third molar depicted by 3D, panoramic reformat view of CBCT and cross-sectional view. Cross-sectional view was our gold standard and other view evaluated by it. Results There were significant differences between the vertical and horizontal relation of nerve and tooth in all views (p < 0.001). Conclusion The results showed differences in the position of the inferior alveolar nerve with different views of CBCT, so CBCT images are not quite reliable and have possibility of error.

Protocol Review

Dynamic navigation (DN) is a computer-guided technique employed in different surgical fields and recently adopted in dental implantology to improve the accuracy of dental implant insertion. Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) often requires the surgical removal of the impaired, hard tissue, trying at the same time to spare the healthy tissue and the noble anatomical structures. A case of extensive bilateral medication-related osteonecrosis, with the symptomatic involvement of the right mandibular canal, was successfully resolved with the use of ultrasonic surgery associated with a dynamic navigation, in order to limit the invasiveness of the surgical approach improving its reliability and accuracy. The usefulness of this technology in the management of MRONJ can be considered in future clinical trials to confirm the advantages and standardize the technique.

Abstract Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is an uncommon benign odontogenic true mixed tumor comprising neoplastic epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. It constitutes only approximately 2% of odontogenic tumors and is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as “neoplasm composed of proliferating odontogenic epithelium embedded in cellular ectomesenchymal tissue that resembles the dental papilla and epithelial strands and varying degrees of inductive changes and dental hard tissue formation.” The tumor is most common in the first and second decades of life with a slight male predilection. The most common site is the posterior mandible and 75% of the cases are associated with an unerupted tooth. Radiologically, it may present as a unilocular or multilocular lesion. The treatment of choice could range from aggressive curettage for a small unilocular lesion to wide local excision for a large multilocular lesion. The prognosis is usually good, with a recurrence rate of approximately 20%. Here we present a case of a 13-year-old male with a multilocular expansile cystic lesion associated with nonvital tooth 20 and tooth 21 since 2016. An incisional biopsy was performed and the microscopic examination revealed small masses of cellular fibrous and myxoid connective tissue containing long narrow cords of odontogenic epithelium. The odontogenic islands were basophilic with peripheral nuclear palisading of the basal cell layer, consistent with an ameloblastic fibroma. Complete curettage was performed and the patient is being followed up with no recurrence since 2 months. We reviewed the literature with regard to clinical, histopathological, and radiological findings and reached the conclusion that malignant transformation of ameloblastic fibroma into ameloblastic fibrosarcoma is uncommon but well documented. AF needs to be distinguished from ameloblastoma and ameloblastic fibrosarcoma, since these two tumors can be locally invasive and have greater potential for recurrence than ameloblastic fibroma.

Two cases of calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor (CCOT) of the dental follicle in an impacted third molar without clinical and radiological evidence are reported during routine histopathological examination. In both the cases left mandibular third molar was mesioangularly impacted with pericoronal radiolucency of less than 2.5 mm, which was not indicative of any pathology. As a routine protocol (which is not practiced widely) of our institution, dental follicles associated with extracted molars were sent for histopathological examination. Histopathological features were consistent with CCOT with pathognomonic ghost cell transformation of odontogenic epithelium. The patients were followed for one year with no recurrence. This paper emphasizes the importance of routine histopathological examination of dental follicles associated with asymptomatic impacted teeth without any clinical or radiographic evidence of follicular lesion.
