Odontogenic sarcoma is a gnathic malignant connective tissue tumor containing epithelium similar to that seen in an ameloblastoma or ameloblastic fibroma. It is a mixed odontogenic tumor in which the epithelial component is benign and the p...

Malignant epithelial odontogenic tumors are very rare. They may arise from the epithelial components of the odontogenic apparatus. The rests of Malassez, the reduced enamel epithelium surrounding the crown of an impacted tooth, the rests of...

As a group, the mixed odontogenic tumors histologically resemble various stages of tooth formation (odontogenesis). Because of this, confusion arises in diagnosis and nomenclature unless one is familiar with normal tooth development and its...

Cementum is a calcified dental tissue that covers the roots of teeth and is part of the periodontium. Its function is to help anchor the teeth in their sockets within the alveolar bone of the jaws. Two benign mesenchymal odontogenic tumors ...

The odontogenic myxoma is an uncommon tumor that has the potential for extensive bony destruction, extension into surrounding structures, and a relatively high recurrence rate. Treatment often requires bone resection. The bland histologic f...

The odontogenic fibroma is a rare tumor that has generated controversy, perhaps disproportionately to its importance in the family of odontogenic tumors. The clinical and radiographic features are well documented but the histologic aspects ...

Odontogenic ghost cell tumor is a rare epithelial odontogenic tumor that is the neoplastic counterpart of the calcifying odontogenic cyst. There is confusion and controversy in the literature regarding the integration or segregation of thes...

Teeth are formed from a complex interaction of primitive ectoderm and ectomesenchymal tissues. Because humans develop 2 sets of teeth (deciduous and permanent), odontogenesis is a prolonged biologic process. Residues of odontogenic tissues ...
