Alveolar bone1
- Although no bony changes are usually observed, the surrounding alveolar bone may reveal either an incipient periapical radiolucency that is consistent with chronic apical periodontitis or a localized radiopacity that is referred to as focal sclerosing osteomyelitis (condensing osteitis). (medscape.com)
Asymptomatic1
- Idiopathic osteosclerosis is an asymptomatic, non-expansive and localized increase of bone radiopacity caused by an increase in the width of the bone trabeculae at the expense of medullary space. (bvsalud.org)
Idiopathic6
- 1- Idiopathic osteosclerosis. (wikipedia.org)
- Could idiopathic osteosclerosis have correlations with palatally impacted maxillary canines? (bvsalud.org)
- To investigate the association between palatally impacted maxillary canines (PIC) and idiopathic osteosclerosis. (bvsalud.org)
- Four patients from each group had idiopathic osteosclerosis (7.41%), a rate that falls in the prevalence range reported in the literature. (bvsalud.org)
- No correlation was observed between palatally impacted maxillary canines and idiopathic osteosclerosis. (bvsalud.org)
- The aim of the present study was to investigate whether an increased prevalence of idiopathic osteosclerosis exists in patients with palatally impacted maxillary canines. (bvsalud.org)
Periapical1
- Condensing osteitis is a periapical inflammatory disease that results from a reaction to a dental related infection. (wikipedia.org)
Pulp1
- NOTE: An abnormal result with pulp testing strongly suggests condensing osteitis and tends to rule out osteosclerosis and cementoblastoma. (wikipedia.org)
Tooth1
- If the offending tooth is extracted, the area of condensing osteitis may remain in the jaws indefinitely, which is termed osteosclerosis or bone scar. (wikipedia.org)
