“…Odontogenic keratocysts have recently been introduced as keratocystic odontogenic tumors characterized by stratified squamous epithelium. 7 They are one of the most aggressive odontogenic lesions, and tend to invade adjacent tissues with a high recurrence rate. The posterior mandibular and third molar areas are the most common sites for these cysts.…”

“…Keratocystic odontogenic tumor may occur in any part of the jaws, with the highest prevalence in the posterior ramus and body of the mandible. 7 Previous studies have indicated that OKC lesions can cause displacement of teeth, the inferior alveolar neurovascular bundle and other adjacent structures; they may also lead to paresthesia of the lower lip if the IAN is impinged upon. Ameloblastoma is an odontogenic tumor with a benign behavior that usually involves the posterior mandible and the third molar area.…”

“…La mayoría de los pacientes diagnosticados con TOB que se presentaron en el HOMI pertenecen al estrato socioeconómico 1 (30,55 %), seguido del estrato 2 (27,77 %); de menor frecuencia fue el estrato 5 (8,33 %). Hubo una tendencia de los datos a relacionar el estrato 1 con la presentación de pacientes diagnosticados con TOB (Pearson chi 2 [16] = 26,6279; p = 0,046).…”

“…En la actualidad, se describe un bajo porcentaje de casos de TOB, pues afectan a personas de todas las edades y se diagnostican, muchas veces, en edades y estados avanzados. En niños, cuando estos aumentan de tamaño excesivamente, dejan secuelas que afectan la anatomía, la función masticatoria, el crecimiento y la estética [16].…”
