“…The initial lesion is radiologically lytic but with time matrix mineralization increases, producing a mixed lytic and sclerotic appearance, usually a "lytic rim" surrounding the lesion. 13 OF often appears as a well-circumscribed, unilocular lesion with a consistent number of radiopaque foci within lesion. As a result, radiographic images are often seen in the form of mixed radiopaque and radiolucent.…”

This article reports on ossifying fibroma (OF) which was established based on panoramic radiographic, CBCT and histopathological examination and treatment performed on a 31 years old male patient. The diagnosis is made by comparing with existing theories in the literature. Case Report: A 31 years old man was referred to the Oral Surgery Department of Al Ihsan Hospital. The patient complained of swelling in the lower left jaw. On palpation it feels hard and cannot be moved. Panoramic radiograph examination showed loss of teeth 34-35 and a radiolucent lesion mixed with radiopaque in the left mandible which resulted in a shift in the position of teeth 36 and 37 more superiorly. The CBCT examination performed revealed a mixed radiolucent and radiopaque lesion of teeth 33-38. Histopathological examination also showed the presence of cellular fibrous with a mineralized component. The patient has been treated in the form of excision of the lesion. Conclusion: CBCT can be used as a reliable supporting examination in helping to diagnose cases of benign neoplasms involving hard bone tissue such as ossifying fibroma. OF has distinctive features on radiographs, one of which is the presence of mixed radiolucent and radiopaque lesions with wispy septa which result in resorption and displacement of the teeth involved. The accuracy of the diagnosis of OF can be enforced by a combination of clinical, radiographic and HPA examinations, so that the treatment given to patients is according to the procedure.

“…This is in accordance with case reports that have been published by other authors before. 11,13,16 The differential diagnosis of OF is mixed radiolucency radiopaque lesions. Sometimes difficult to distinguish from fibrous dysplasia (FD).…”

Unicystic ameloblastoma is a slow-growing tumor originating from the odontogenic epithelium that can be localized within the lining of a cyst. It commonly affects younger individuals and is frequently found in the posterior mandible. The classification of this tumor is based on histopathological characteristics, distinguishing between the luminal, intraluminal, and mural proliferation of the odontogenic epithelium. Treatment options vary depending on the histology and can range from enucleation to resection with secondary reconstruction. In recent years, patient-specific implants have gained popularity in reconstructive surgeries, particularly in craniomaxillofacial surgery. This case report focuses on a 22-yearold female patient with a mural-type unicystic ameloblastoma. The treatment involved segmental mandibular resection with primary reconstruction using a patient-specific implant to address the mandibular defect. The postoperative healing process and condylar movement were evaluated, and the patient achieved satisfactory results. This case report provides valuable insights into the management of primary reconstruction using a patient-specific implant.
