Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral Pathology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Periapical cemental dysplasia (PCD) is a benign, localized bone lesion of unknown etiology.
  • It predominantly affects middle-aged individuals, particularly black females, and commonly occurs in the anterior mandible.

Observation:

  • A case report detailing periapical cemental dysplasia in the mandibular left canine of a 43-year-old black female.
  • The affected tooth exhibited a vital pulp, a key diagnostic consideration.

Findings:

  • The clinical presentation and radiographic features aligned with classical descriptions of periapical cemental dysplasia.
  • Vitality tests confirmed the pulp's health, differentiating it from other periapical pathologies.

Implications:

Related Experiment Videos

  • Emphasizes the necessity of comprehensive patient history, clinical examination, radiographic assessment, and pulp vitality testing for accurate PCD diagnosis.
  • Underscores the importance of recognizing typical presentations to avoid misdiagnosis and ensure appropriate management of this condition.
